Air bag suspension for the '60 Beetle project

Air bag suspension for Steve's VW Beetle

Finally it's time to start Air Bagging Project ?60!



I’ve been looking forward to this for ages. Time in the garage has been few and far between lately, what with all the shows we attend.
But finally the time came to see just how low the old girl was going to go. So with an afternoon set aside, I steamed in to the rear end (Hello Misses!).

Now as I’ve explained before, this air ride lark is all new to me, so I decided to take my time. Double and even triple checking everything.

So far things have gone well. The bottom bag mount is fitted on one side, and with one side done I’m now confident I can get the other side and the rest of the kit fitted up in a day. So watch this space for the next instalment, with pictures of just how low the rear will sit.
