Hey every one!
I'm about to start my Baja Bug conversion this weekend and wonder how would the best way to gain more ground clearance.
It has a standard type 1 in it and will be putting the type 2 IRS in it soon. Is it as simple as moving the torsion bars back a notch or will that cause problems?

Also with the front i was going to extend the swing arms and put spring on there or something.

Thanks!!

dude if you plan on registering this, speak to an engineer before doing anything
