VW aircooled classic Beetle suspension beam installation

In this episode I swap out my narrowed beam for a stock beam. I also cover how to remove drum brakes and install leaf springs. This is the first part of 2 and in the next episode I will be installing an Empi brake disc kit. Thanks watching. Please like, subscribe and leave a comment. Jamie

Your a brave man driving out those inner phenolic bushings! I wanted to replace the inner bushings in my type 2 but was told by Nate of Wagenswest not to touch them as replacements are not available. I used an inspection camera to verify no excessive wear damage. Nate told me to swap suspension arms from left to right and right to left to even put the arm wear and bushing wear. That said, the way you drove out the bushings was very clever!

I've never seen a torsion bar made of multiple leaves like that.
