i had a mate with a type 3 squareback on hydro's.... it worked great, so i don't see any reason why air bags wouldnt be possible.

DUde, Rear is quite easy, but your right the front is a real problem....IT is real easy to hydro any vw, just replace the shocks with cylinders, and for ride quality get some accumulators....Im currently working on my 63 bug that will be riding full air bags.... Check out the "the bug" thread in members rides.....

Good stuff coming to the dub side...

N!

theres a company thats at Autosalon every year, maybe contact Autosalon

his a black dude that imports them from the states he told me its $1500 to control front and back or $2700 to control all 4 bags

bargain i reckon!
