if it's for a beetle front beam then you can buy them from CB performance in the states.....no hassles in working anything out, just bolt them on

Cheers

The CB Performance ones are they for ball joint or king pin?

You can get them for both king and link pin and ball joint in either drum brake or disc brake applications. Very nice pieces of kit (I have dropped spindles ball joint for disc brakes, and my mate has the same but for king and link pin).
