Compatibility

This kit is designed to work with an OEM Volkswagen front beam or an Ultimate/ECObuilt Beam from Airkewld. The PRO's can not tech support another vendors beam with our air ride kit.
Drop Spindles are required if you want to get as low as possible. If you need advice on what spindles make the most sense, check out this article.
If you are looking for an ALL-IN-ONE package, consider the Stage 2 PRObuilt Beam found here or the Complete PRObuilt Air Ride Kit found here.

Airkewld 5 Star Review 5

Posted by Allen on Aug 14th 2025

I have followed Airkewld for almost 20 years now. I have wanted a full front and back air ride. I just received the full system. This winter my 1966 Beetle will finally be one step closer to being perfect. Thank you for your top notch parts!!!
