so what suspensions (brands?) do you air cooled guys use to get such low rides? It looks as if theres bugs are all bagged, which I am sure they are not but so low.

I saw a comment that said "I lowered the body but not the suspension" what does this mean?

I want to get me a bug and start a rebuild. I have no knowledge of these things though. Are the cars that are this low easily driven?

**vdubscooby** · 08-25-2005 08:16 PM

the guy that lowered the body on his bug probably z'ed the frame. this hightens where the suspension connects which lowers the car. it also gives u the feel for a stock ride since it has the same travel. i believe that most of us that have lowered or cars have done so with dropped spindles and new beams (or adjusters welded to the beams). the rear end doesnt need anything to be lowered. it may be a little rough of a ride but i would rather look cool than have a smooth ride.
there is a lot of information on http://www.thesamba.com use their search feature.

awesome, thanks scooby

one more question, that light blue dub, are those fenders all custom widened and stuff? I dont really know whats what with the older bugs, but I like the ones with the longer noses and the wider fenders.

I z'd my frame (bent the framehead upwards) but I haven't seen anyone else do this to a VW chassis but hear some drag VW has done this in the past. I also channelled the body (lowered the body, not the suspension), this is where you mount the body below the stock location so the body sits lower. Most keep the floorpans stock height so you loose headroom this way, I lowered my floorpans with it. My chassis is about 2" off the ground on near stock suspension height. Notice how the floor pans is below the stock location on this pict, so the body is mounted closer to the ground now

Lower nose are from '66 Beetles and earlier. Later had a more squared off bottom decklid. Fenders were flared also
