Slamming a IRS
« on: January 20, 2015, 10:24:55 pm »
Looking to lower the rear of a super beetle. Been watching videos online everyone is doing it different. Any tips, tricks. SJVWC have any video on this. Do we want to make one?

How low do you want it? Just reindex the rear torsion bars.

If you really want to slam it consider flipping the rear arms to keep the camber. Requires cutting and welding the shock mounts.

Wheel camber don't matter. 1 click is 2 inches?
