About time I showed my rides
Thought it was about time I put up some pics of my dubs.
It started with the 66 beetle and then came along the 69 lowlight.
Both cars have been hit with the lowering stick,(adjusters and adjust of spring plates)
Special thanks goes to Pete from Custom VeeDub for lowering the kombi, great work and kept me updated along the way and even better I didnt have to
get dirty.
Hope you like.
Cheers,
Rodz

I put oil ones in because I like the slower rebound, I run oil in the beetle and found they improved the ride.
my beam will hit the adjusted bump stops before bottoming out the shocks as I made sure the correct travel was in shock travel distance.
