Complete Adjustable Front Axle Beam Assembly | 1949-1965 Classic VW Type 1 Beetle Ghia

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ “Precision assembled, PRO-verified, and narrowed correctly for your Classic VW—without guesswork.”

The Correct Way to Adjust a Link Pin Volkswagen

The best way to raise or lower a 1949–1965 Classic VW Beetle or Ghia is with a Complete PRObuilt Front Axle Beam Assembly.

When the PRO’s say complete, we mean it.

This beam arrives fully assembled, aligned, and ready to bolt in—no missing parts, no hunting for components, and no second-guessing.

Every PRObuilt Beam is reviewed by a PRO for correctness before it ships — including narrowing, brakes, wheels, and suspension compatibility.
If anything needs clarification, we’ll contact you before proceeding.

That’s how we eliminate mistakes before they ever happen.

Why PRObuilt Is Different

Bolt-In & Go

This is a true bolt-in solution. Most installations are completed in under 4 hours with basic hand tools. No cutting, no welding, no fabrication—just clean, efficient progress from start to finish.

Quality You Can Feel

A PRObuilt Beam is the Rolex of Classic VW front suspension systems. Each assembly is built using premium components, OEM-quality parts, stainless steel hardware, and durable finishes designed to last the life of the vehicle.

The result is immediate—tighter steering, improved ride quality, and a refined driving experience you can feel right away.

World-Class Ride Quality

Proper geometry matters. With 7.5 inches of usable suspension travel, this beam delivers a smooth, controlled ride whether you’re cruising at stock height or running a lowered stance.

No binding. No harshness. Just confidence.

Narrowed Correctly — Not Guesswork

Wheel fitment is one of the most misunderstood—and most expensive—mistakes in a Classic VW build.

Too narrow and you compromise suspension geometry.
Not narrow enough and you fight tire rub forever.

That’s why PRObuilt Beams are available in stock width, 2", 3", and 4" narrowed configurations—without forcing you to guess which one is right.

A PRO reviews your wheel, tire, brake, and suspension setup before your beam is finalized to determine the correct narrowing for your build.

This is how we eliminate wheelbarrow stance, clearance issues, and costly do-overs—while still giving you the exact fit your car needs.

Have a specific narrowing in mind? You can note it during checkout, and a PRO will confirm it with you before the beam is built.

Ready to Ship, Ready to Roll

Residential or commercial delivery is available at competitive rates, including lift gate and pallet jack service when needed.

What’s Included (No Guesswork)

This is a fully assembled front axle system, not a partial kit.

Optional Add-Ons (Not Required)

Optional Disc Brake Installation (Labor Only)

If you’re running disc brakes and want the PRO’s to install your selected kit onto the beam before shipping, we’ll take care of it.

Not sure which options apply? That’s okay. A PRO will confirm everything before your beam ships.

PRO’s Recommendations

Stop Better:
Pair your PRObuilt Beam with a Disc Brake Kit designed for 1949–1965 applications to dramatically improve stopping power and safety.

Tighten Steering Feel:
While the beam is out, upgrading worn steering components or the steering coupler is an easy way to restore precise steering feel.

Fitment & FAQs

Do I need to modify my vehicle to install this beam?
No. This beam is designed as a true bolt-in solution for 1949–1965 Link Pin vehicles. No body modifications are required.

Do I need to send in a core?
No core is required. However, if you return usable arms, spindles, and steering box components (packed in a 5-gallon bucket), a $200 core rebate will be issued once received.

Will I need anything else?
No additional components are required for installation.

Lifetime Support

Airkewld provides tech support for as long as you own the vehicle.
If the vehicle changes ownership, tech support plans are available for the next owner.

If you want it done once, correctly, this is the beam.
