Sorry for the ignorance but do these things work on all Type 1's ie swing axle & IRS the same ???
Am very interested, even though Herb generally only can spin the wheels on wet grass.
Peter
Peter, yes it will work on swing as well as IRS........................you would be suprised at how much the forks flex even in a standard beetle, this will stop it.
for everyone that has ordered, Thankyou. Will have them delivered within 2-3 weeks.
Still taking orders
I have asked before, but do you fellas know of any first hand experience of these things in an Offroad veicle either a Baja or Buggy...
Im thinking they could be helpful in the soft stuff like sand ect, but would they hold up. Though knowing me ill never get a chance to get off
road.
Oh by the way they look great!!
This kit will help with stopping the gearbox forks from flexing, this will most certainly occur in offroading.
And yes they will "hold up" with no problems
I will be fitting this kit to my buggy.

yes also interested in this answer. People running ej20's are moving the cradel forward 100mm how would this work on a subi bug with 091 box with
these requirments?
Cheers Stephen
Hi Craig
Just wondering whether you had a chance to figure out a setup that would fit into a 54 oval?
The five bar is my preference.
cheers

Hi Craig
Will these fit with stock heater boxes in place?
Steve
Craig,
PM sent mate.
Cheers.
Well I found a few spare minutes today to fit up one of Craig's 5 bar setups. This is in a 75 L Bug.
Went in without a hassle, everything fitted fine and the only thing I did differently was welded the rear tab to the cross member rather than the
frame horn.
As luck would have it the supplied tabs fitted this application perfectly.
Out of 10 I would have to give it 10 at this stage. It was shipped fast, packed well and supplied as specified. Fitted perfectly and the quality is
very good. Even with it just tacked in place it stiffens up the rear end.
Hi Brad
Looks good. Why did you keep the stock L bug mounts? They are crap, its an easy conversion to fit an earlier mount frame.
