What's included in the ECObuilt Spindle Set Outright?

  • Break down a set of core spindles, clean, inspect the condition
  • Media blast all components
  • Clean up spindle nut threads
  • Clearance carrier
  • Weld gussets to carriers
  • Reverse taper for the new flipped tie rod ends
  • Install new Oil Impregnated Bronze Bushings as needed
  • Press spindles back together w/ new seals
  • Install NEW grease fittings and NEW kingpin retaining bolts

What's recommended?

  • It is recommended you check the adjustments in your link pins ever 2500 miles or every year. There is a square end on the back of the link pin that you can adjust to tighten up. It will require you to loosen the clamp bolts to do this.
  • It is recommended to grease the upper and lower zerks every 2500 miles or every year to keep the system lubricated.
  • When installing brakes on these spindles and it is time to adjust the bearing thrust, you need to tighten the bearings until the drum or rotor does not move by hand, then back off 1/4 turn and lock it down. This will ensure that as long as you packed your bearings correctly, lubed the seal correctly, this too will last forever* and failure will almost be non-existent.

Kewl Features

  • Assembled by the PRO's in the USA.
  • Bolt-On ready
  • 3.5 inches of drop

FAQ

  • Are you able to guarantee that the assembled spindles on your VW now are done correctly to keep YOU and YOUR family SAFE? If you are, perfect. If you can't, the PRO's at Airkewld will give you that confidence as long as you install them correctly.
  • What if I want less of a drop that 3 1/2 inches? If you are looking to get a precise drop on your current Volkswagen, it's going to be difficult but attainable. Your VW should have original torsion springs inside the beam, these hold the vehicle up. But they have sagged or lost some amount of tension over the years. So trying to do that math and give you exactly what you want visually, will be difficult. Best decision would be to install new torsion leaves to raise the vehicle up, then understand how much you want to drop it. If 3 1/2" gives you the right drop, the ECObuilt Spindles Service is a perfect addition to your VW.
  • I have slop in my king pins, does these ECObuilt Drop Spindles fix this problem? We replace the factory king pin bushings with this service. The PRO's will polish the king pins to verify if they will work. If they do not, the PRO's will be in contact on replacement king pin options.
  • I want to add disc brakes to my Type 2 Bus, will your Gen 1 or GEN 2 set of BAD Series Disc Brakes fit them? Yes. Our BAD Series Disc Brakes fit your factory bus spindles, regardless of being stock or dropped.
  • Is this service available for my Type 2 Split Brazilian Bus? Yes. Here.

Get them built correctly, install them correctly, maintain them correctly, they will last forever.
