hes not a dweeb or whatever.and your answer was more stupid than his question.
you need more than just a narrowed beam and three clicks down to be that low and actually drive it.and no its not cheap to get a bug that low.
hey discolored...you sayin im not nice

how was my answer more stupid then his question? i never said that his question was stupid in the first place i was just making a joking comment.
and what more do you need then a narrowed beam and a few clicks out back? thats all that mine is...removed the bumpstops and shocks in the front of course and i drive that thing daily. do you need some of those ****ty spring plate extensions? isnt it you that makes those...one of the biggest wastes of money i have ever spent.
why is it that every thread i see you post in you are doing it from high atop your horse?

yes it's a 68. i wouldn't know the difference from an early 60's if it wasn't for the wheels.

no i dont make those extensions...thats oldlight.to go super low and have the car be dependable, you need a trans lift and extended spring plates. also depending on how low, you will need to cut your headlight buckets.
im not on top of any horses. just wanted to make sure this fella doesnt get the wrong idea about lowering.
you can lower a type one easily and very cheaply if you only want to go two splines...much more than that and either you will be causing components to fail or you will need to do a trans lift.
we are not talking about a type three..he asked about a bug.
to get a type three that low you need to run a type one beam and get short axles for the back. not that cheap either.
oh and we're not talking about going as low as your square, we're talking about going as low as my bug or that orange bug from 'down under' you cannot get a bug that low and actually drive it without quite a bit of work and some money.
chill out ratty

I'm into watercooled stuff, and we're not all *******s.
I agree that the aircooled guys seem more laidback though, and the cars are just incredible. One day I WILL own a slammed bus!

i haven't left my driveway yet in my 67 and i've bottomed out 6 times already.
i don't see how you do it man. i guess bags help. i've gotta get some 145/65's for the front, i'm running 145's now and they're too tall to turn. they rub the inside quarter.
sled might seem like a dick but he does know his sh!te so i would listen so that you don't have to go through the learning curve like i have.

Yes. there are 4 and 5 lug sprint stars. 5s are big money, a nice set of 4s isn't too cheap, but way less than the 5s.70 square will need 4s.
