Suit a 1971 beetle with a 3 bolt ball joint on the bottom. Will lower a standard beetle 80mm and give you approx 150mm ground clearance depending on
what wheels & tyres you use
the struits have been fitted to a vw but never been used .

IT'S THE YELLOW ONE AND THEY COME AS A PAIR
bump 
Will these fit a '74 curved windscreen L-Bug?
95% of 74s are the later 2 bolt front end not the early 3 bolt like these
Shotty these. Will be going on our 72 super.
From Dylan
Dylan, do you want me to bring them back to Port on Friday or Saturday night for you?
Jeff , yes That would be a big help. although i have to get the money sorted first might not be for couple weeks till you can pick them up though till
i get all my money sorted??
From Dylan
OK, let me know. I will be starting to work in Orange some of the time in the next few weeks, so I may not be coming home every weekend - otherwise by the time I got home, I woud pass myself on the way back lol
Ok Jeff Joliet you know. Shit you really are doing it hard with alot of work everywhere when do you think you will be getting back to port jobs ?
From Dylan
Good question. I am just chasing dollars for a while (for once in my life). Only a few years I hope. I miss Port heaps though - will be interesting to see how I last.
Sorry Ian - Been thinking i would need to buy a bump steer kit for these aswell and i dont have the money for either at the moment.
FREE BUMP!!!
From Dylan
Would these simply bolt on to lower a '71 super ? Or would I need to make other adjustments / buy other parts to prevent rubbing or effect steering ?

It all depends on what wheel mags , stock rims etc.thats the fun of owning a old car , you just bolt them in and then see if tyres etc dont rub on the guard etc

Stock rims and tyres is what ill be using ... ? Did you have yours on a standard or a super ? reckon it will make a difference ?
apparently there are 2 types of stock rims ??, mine had the smaller out side dish and the wheels just missed my guards.

Hi Ian
What did you take them out for? Looked like a good way to get some ground clearance for the sump.

Is there anyway i can tell what they are ? (Written on it somewhere ?)
Yeah it's under the hubcaps stamped on the raised sections in between each wheel nut.
Depending how many coats of silver foam the rims have had in there life it can be abit hard to read.
I cant see much under the hub caps. I can make out the VW logo on most of them, 3 of them I can see 8/70 7/70 and 7/71 which i assume are the dates,
and 2 i can see 4JX15 and another just the '5' but not 4 ET34. This is a 1/71 super
They all have 165 r 15 tyres tho
Sometimes the stampings are hard to see and a bit faint but most of the time theyre just buried under paint.
You got 3 different date rims there too.
Width, date and offset.
I'll have to get the buffer wheel out and get sum of that paint off, it usually brings up the stamped VW logo pretty well on other parts I've used it on. Im pretty sure the 7/71 rim I have swapped from my other super which was made 8/71 and it isnt running stock so i used the rim with the best tyre. But there must be a few layers put on there cause I can really only see the heavy indented "T" shape on a few, no where near as clear as yours Joel.
