2 Inch Narrowed | Front Axle Adjustable Beam | Raw | 1949-1965 Classic VW Type 1 Beetle Ghia

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - "Reliable, budget-friendly performance. Our ECObuilt Raw Adjustable Beam puts ride height control in your hands while keeping things simple and solid." - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

In 1999, the only way to get the perfect stance, wheels, and brake fitment on your ride was by cutting up the factory beam. It was a tedious, complex process to narrow your track and install adjusters—one that left many enthusiasts searching for a better solution.

After countless attempts to work with fabricators, we decided to take matters into our own hands and design the perfect beam from scratch. Every detail was carefully planned, and we made sure it included everything you need and nothing you don't.

Here's what made our beam truly unique:

• American-Made Steel: We insisted on using only the best quality materials for unmatched strength and durability.
• Delrin Bushings: These are the last bushings you'll ever need—high-performance, long-lasting, and built for a smooth ride.
• Maximized Tower Clearance: The towers were designed to give you the most room without needing to make any body modifications.
• Precision Machining: Every bung, center, slide block, and nutsert is machined in-house for perfect precision and fit.
• In-House Jig Building: Each beam is carefully jig-built to ensure flawless alignment and durability.
• Grease Fittings: For proper maintenance and longevity, every beam includes grease fittings, making upkeep a breeze.

This was all back in 2007, and since then, we've built over 25,000+ beams—constantly refining and improving our designs. The PRO's continue to set the standard for precision, performance, and style. If you're looking for the ultimate upgrade to your vehicle's suspension, this is it.

FAQ

Q: Do I need to modify my vehicle’s body to install the ECObuilt Beam?
A: No body modifications are required! The ECObuilt Beam is designed to fit directly into your existing setup. The inside dimension is 29 13/16", giving you just 1/16" of clearance on each side—so it's a clean, easy install without any cutting or welding. It's truly a bolt-in solution, saving you time and hassle.

Q: How is the beam narrowed by 2 inches when there’s only 1/2 inch on each side of my stock beam?
A: Great question! To achieve the 2-inch narrowing, we strategically use the outer ends of the tubes and gusset outward, which gives us the additional space needed. This technique maintains structural integrity while providing the track width and versatility you need. For a deeper understanding, check out our explainer video here where we walk you through the process.

Q: Will this beam work with both Air Ride and Static suspension setups?
A: Absolutely! The ECObuilt Beam is designed to accommodate both Air Ride and Static suspension systems. Keep in mind, when using Air Ride, the adjuster will not be functional. However, whether you’re running air or static, this beam will work seamlessly for your suspension needs.

Q: My control arms don’t slide into the ECObuilt Beam easily. Do I need to purchase your arm set?
A: Not at all! If your control arms aren’t sliding in smoothly, it’s likely due to wear from years of use. Most stock arms haven’t been serviced, which causes them to develop a slight build-up or rough spots. Simply polish your arms with emory cloth until they slide in easily and smoothly. This step is crucial for achieving a smooth, comfortable ride. Skipping it or forcing the arms in could result in poor vehicle handling. For a detailed guide, check out our polishing tutorial video to make sure your installation goes perfectly.

Q: What kind of time is typical for installation?
A: Roughly 4 hours if you have general VW knowledge and follow our very detailed installation guide.
