Love the way this old bug sits. Need one in our shop.

There fun!!!

@rtkracht Год назад

Good memories… I had a ‘61 VW as a teenager and there was not a single part on the front end that wasn’t worn out. Got a good education replacing those bad parts. Thanks for sharing!

@ACDesignsGarage Год назад

Thanks, I do love how easy they are to work on!!!

Here's your answer. You'll need adjuster plates on your beam though. Use the stock torsion bars in the upper tube of the beam, not through rods. Put some tension on the torsion bars with the adjuster, then use the trough rods on the bottom tube. You won't need to run as much air PSI to raise and drive the car, they will last longer and have a better ride.

Don't think I could part with the bug. Thanks for watching!

@edwincartagena7414 Год назад

Hey I would like to see how your set up is😊

@frankschwartz7405 Год назад

Hot? I got 14 degrees...I'll take it. The "trick" on VW lug bolts is: Get your large punch and put it through the bolt hole in the wheel, and then into the brake drum. Slide the wheel on. Start your first bolt in a different hole.

@ACDesignsGarage Год назад

Thanks for the tip ill try that, yeah id take hot now to it was 8 degrees here the other night lol

@chasmcneal7894 Год назад

I had it on jack and it fell on top of me I had to lift it off of me good thing it was the front end

@chasmcneal7894 Год назад

I remembered a time I got up early to go to work and battery was dead so I decided to push start it I pushed it down hill and the back wheel got my foot and run rite over my butt

@chasmcneal7894 Год назад

Sorry I had to write a book but I needed to get that off my chest

@ACDesignsGarage Год назад

Hahaha I feel your pain, Hope you can get another one, they are a ton of fun and easy to work on for sure!!!

@luigi575 Год назад

What airshocks you recommend for a 1963 bug

@ACDesignsGarage Год назад

I have monroe maxx air but im not really impressed with the newer ones. The new ones I bought are already leaking. If you have the funds go with a air bag on a beam, thats what im gonna do. Here is the one im getting.www.pandraggers.com/product-page/single-bag-link-pin-beam. Ill do a video on it as soon as I get it. If you need the part number on the air shocks let me know ill have to find it. God Bless!!!

@shabeermohamed2193 Месяц назад

Hi, I do have a 65 bug, is it only the air shocks you have on the beetle no other modification.

@ACDesignsGarage Месяц назад

I have a few more mods done to it. The front has a narrowed beam, you don't need this mod ,it just moves the tires in for a better look and it helps with turning when driving low. Also it has dropped spring plates in the rear, youll need this if your going real low.

@chasmcneal7894 Год назад

I was a young man then and haven’t trusted no one sense im 46years old now sucks

@shabeermohamed2193 2 месяца назад

We're can I buy this shocks from, I'm in south Africa.

@ACDesignsGarage 2 месяца назад

I got mine off of Amazon.com

@TopChoisse Год назад

Do you know what the model # on the maxair is?

@ACDesignsGarage Год назад

I think there ma785 all the way around, check how your front shocks mount you may need a different style , some mount with a stud on the top and others like mine mount like normal shocks.

@TopChoisse Год назад

@@ACDesignsGarage Thanks..I have a 66' that i'm just now starting to build. I'm just getting ready to tear the front end apart.
