Is there a "standard" for dropped spindles or can you get them altered for any height? i want to drop my 66 van about 2 inches but i have heard that they need to be 3 to 3 1\2 which is a little too much for me. Why do my back wheels hang out at the top (is this because when a load is carried they straighten up?) and how do I get them so they are perpendicular to the road? any help always appreciated Andy L

Where abouts are you located. ?????

You need to find someone who can alter the torsion bars in the rear end
and replace all the rubber bushing as well.

i'm in Byron Bay nth NSW .

what about the spindles can i get them altered by 2" or do i have to go the whole hog and drop it 3 or more?

in byron eh? i have just moved to nashua, near bangalow and i have got a 67 as well as a 60 beetle and a 72 crew cab and i have made a few contacts in that field of interest too! we should hook up and chat ! my no. is 0414 726194 if you want to chat!
