love the web site (got camber?) but i dont think i can go that low i live out in the sticks to many lumps and bumps. I would like to lower the bug about the same as your brown one perhaps not so low at the front. My new bug is not full on rat look but its has not been restored there is rust and dents but i love it and its stoping that way

ya bug sounds pretty cool to me bro. try get some pics posted up.
my bug was at the hight it is now when i bought it, but im pretty sure its down one spline at the back, with big ass 205/65 tyres for that cal look stance and the front beam is narrowed by two inches with sway away adjusters welded in plus 2 and a half inch dropped spindles and 145/65 tyres.
so all youve got to do is move the arms at the back to drop the rear, with no cost for parts and just weld in some sway aways on the front beam, wich only cost a few quid from most retailers. theres no need to bother with the drop spinndles unless ya want to scrape n bump nearly every time ya go for a drive.
