⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - "Gain 7.5" of precise ride height control on your 1966–77 VW Beetle, Ghia, Thing, with weld-in link pin adjusters—engineered for safety, strength, & smooth adjustability." - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A proven way to lower your Classic Volkswagen Type 1 Beetle or Karmann Ghia with ball joint front suspension (1966–1977) is by welding in precision adjusters at the center of the beam.

When installed at 25° above parallel, these adjusters provide a total of 7.5" of ride height adjustment—from true stock height at the top setting to 7.5" lower, with infinite fine-tuning in between.

Unlike the unreliable “50/50” shortcut, which compromises suspension geometry and safety, Airkewld adjusters preserve factory engineering. Proper installation ensures full travel, stable handling, and safe operation.

Adjustment Range

  • 0" (stock height) up to –7.5"

  • Fine-tunable in 1/16" increments

Good, Better, Best Options for Lowering a Link Pin VW

  • Good: Install these adjusters (budget-friendly, no tech support)

  • Better: Upgrade to an Ultimate Beam (includes support)

  • Best: Install a Stage 1 PRObuilt Beam (assembled, tuned, tech support included)

What’s Included

  • (1) Ball Joint Adjuster (2) needed

Recommended Installation

  • Weld at 25° past parallel to retain stock height at the highest setting

  • Replace torsion leaves if stock height is desired with worn torsions

  • When cutting, remove ¼" more than needed and bevel edges at 45° for a strong weld with full penetration

Kewl Features

  • Made in USA

  • Full 7.5" range of movement

  • Precise 1/16" ride height adjustability

    Pete noticed that something with my order didn't seem right and went out of his way to verify it with me and help correct it instead of just shipping it as it was.

    Look to be a very robust product. I have had some from other companies and they are nowhere near the quality. Can't wait to install them and get back on the road. If there is one issue I had with them, it would be they didn't send some cool decals with the order (just kidding). Thank you for the quality VW parts.
