Description
Lower the front of your classic VW while maintaining proper steering geometry with this pair of forged 2.5 inch drop spindles for king and link pin front suspension with drum brakes. These spindles are designed for Beetle and Karmann Ghia applications using early king/link pin front ends and provide a clean lowered stance without relying on adjusters alone.
Unlike cut-and-turned beams or extreme front beam adjustments, drop spindles lower the vehicle at the spindle location, helping preserve a more comfortable ride and better suspension travel. These forged spindles are built for strength and dimensional accuracy, making them a great upgrade for street cars, restorations, and custom lowered builds.
Important Fitment Note: 1957 and earlier vehicles may need to be converted to the 1958 and later style drum brake setup for proper installation. Always compare your existing spindle, drum brake, and front suspension components before ordering.
