Ball Joint Ultimate Beam Benefits


highlights


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 to narrow the beam 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.
  • Premium Powder Coating: To ensure your beam not only performs flawlessly but also looks incredible, we powder coat each one for a sleek, long-lasting finish.

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.


Whats Included




Looking to achieve the perfect stance while ensuring optimal wheel fitment? The Stage 1 PRObuilt Beam is the go-to solution for enthusiasts who want precision, durability, and performance.

Why Choose the Stage 1 PRObuilt Beam?

For most applications, the pros recommend a four-inch narrowed beam, which strikes the perfect balance between functionality and style, allowing almost any wheel to tuck seamlessly under your fenders. Whether you're after a sleek dropped look or a more moderate stance, this beam gives you the flexibility to achieve the ride you envision. Don't know what works for you, check out this article.

Perfect Pairings for Your Stage 1 PRObuilt Beam:

  • Dropped Look? Pair your beam with Airkewld’s GEN 2 Disc Brake Kit (Link) or your factory drums for a smooth, reliable setup.

Make Your Installation Easier:

To save time and ensure you’ve got everything you need, we offer a complete Install Kit that includes new beam bolts, upper and lower body pads—everything necessary to get the job done right.

Optional Upgrades:

  • If you're looking to further enhance your ride, adding the GEN 2 Disc Brake Kit (Link) is a great choice. You can also add labor for installation by the PRO’s to make the process even easier.
  • For steering precision, if your steering coupler has seen better days, upgrade to the OEM PRObuilt Steering Box Coupler (Link) for improved performance and reliability.

The Stage 1 PRObuilt Beam is the foundation for a superior ride. Whether you're building from the ground up or upgrading your existing setup, the PROs are here to help you get the most out of your vehicle. Don’t settle for less—get the beam that professionals trust.


What does this fit?


As good as your Beam looks on camera, I was even more blown away by seeing the real thing in my shop. The powder coating was immaculate. The assembly was meticulous, and though I had thought of doing the assembly myself, I was so happy I didn't. For the price, this thing just looks like it will perform, and I'm excited to install it and to have it under me. What a great product, Pete! You guys overperformed on this Ball Joint Beam. Thanks! Best money I've spent on this project.

This was one of the purchases for my Ghia that was a had to have. I expected quality but WOW this Beam has exceeded expectation. Definitely motivation to get everything else done. Welds, powder coat, parts and pieces all top notch. I'll be ordering another for my dads beetle.

I have been a customer of Airkewld for the past four years. I have nothing really to say because the excellent quality of Pete's products already speak for themselves. I'm sure other customers can attest to my review. If other people are debating on purchasing from Airkewld...do it! I guarantee you won't regret it. Pete also provides excellent customer service to match the level of his products.

Q: Do I need to modify my vehicle’s body to install the PRObuilt Beam?
A: No body modifications are required! The PRObuilt 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 4 inches when there’s only 1/2 inch on each side of my stock beam?
A: Great question! To achieve the 4-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: What kind of time is typical for installation?
A: Roughly 2.5 hours if you have general VW knowledge and follow our very detailed installation guide.
Q: Do I need to send in a core?
A: No. The PRO's have a few options for your cores. Check them out here.
Q: Will I need anything in addition to this assembly?
A: No. It's as complete as it comes from the factory.
Q: My car is sitting crooked before and after installing my New PRObuilt Beam. What is causing the problem?
A: Check out this article on identifying the condition of your drive-train here.

Reviewer: Scott W Beckley from Littleton, CO United States  
When I saw what come off the truck I was so impressed. The crate was impeccably constructed and packed. Best unpacking experience ever. Once opened, what was inside is a piece of art. The quality and craftsmanship is second to none. I could not be happier.
