EMPI 2" Narrowed Beam King And Link Pin VW Beetle 1946–1965
Quality EMPI product. 2” narrowed front beam for the early VW Beetle.
When fitted, these narrowed beams tuck the front wheels in by two inches, giving better clearance for wider wheels or drop spindle and disc brake kits. These can also help you get your VW get that little bit lower!
Specifically for VW Type 1 King and Lik Pin front suspension systems. The benefits of using a narrowed beam include increased wheel clearance and a more aggressive vehicle stance, enhancing both aesthetics and performance. This narrowed beam is fully compatible with stock suspension components, requiring only minor modifications such as adjusting tie rods and installing narrowed leaf springs.
Regular maintenance involves inspecting mounting points and hardware for any signs of wear. The narrowed beam improves handling and ride quality by reducing front-end weight, offering better cornering capabilities. Suitable for both street and off-road use, it is recommended to upgrade shocks and bushings along with the narrowed beam for optimal performance.
