OK I've got a 71 super beetle that I want to lower. I've got some whiteline springs (40~50mm lower). So whats next? can I just use a standard insert and cut the stops or is there a nicer solution? golf inserts?

Buy them already done and set up.... available here in Sydney. 02-9789-1777

you need golf inserts and adjustable struts if you want to do it right.
Go to

Then stories from our club magavine > struts and stuff

Good article by Steve C

Another good place is

go to Tech and Stuff
as well as the forums under Technical > Suspension.

I have just dumped Blue with the help of V Force. He sells the adjustable strut if you are interested.
It is custom made with a Kings spring and Saachs insert.

Do what Baz says & call Richard at V-Force, 0297431247 & he's cheaper than everyone else as well.
