Why Buy It As A Package

The parts are the easy part. Making them work together is the job.

One Package, No Guesswork
Beam, brakes, transaxle, shocks, and hardware arrive as one system, engineered to fit your VW and each other.
Built Around Your Car
Every package is built to order for one car: your year, your model, your wheels, and your stance.
Confirmed by a PRO Before We Build
After you order, a PRO goes over the details with you so it fits the first time.
Freight Included in the Lower 48
Your package is crated and shipped from Goodyear, Arizona at no charge. Good freight rates everywhere else.
Monthly Payments Available
Pay in full, or spread the cost with Affirm. Your monthly payment is shown beside the price on each package page.
25 Years of Classic VW Experience
Every component is PRObuilt, tested, and ready to perform.
