Type 3 torsion bars in Beetle
G'day Guys and Gals
Just wanted to get some opinions on putting Type 3 Torsion Bars in my beetle.
Basically have my bare pan all revamped and am ready to start bolting stuff back on.
My car is going to be a real weekend warrior so I want it to handle well and am not worried if the ride is a little rough.
I've heard putting Type 3 Torsion bars in the rear helps stiffen up the suspension and can help the car handle better...
Thoughts on this???????
My car is a 58 but has been converted to IRS, do I need to get any special year Type 3 for its torsion bars??
Cheers
Brad

this subject has been talked about before do a search and you find the articles
Yes the type 3 bar is larger in diameter so it will make handling better.
