Buggy rear suspension.
I dont know if anyone is interested in off road stuff but here is the rear stuff I built for the buggy, had to go longer because even with my largeness in there the front end wouldnt stay down, Love that turbo fi power.

Re: Buggy rear suspension.
120 wall for the mains and 095 for the forward 2 bars.
probably overkill but i hate to breakdown, that is a 1 1/4 inch heim.

Re: Buggy rear suspension.
Do you mean a front suspension? Volkspares are currently developing an off-road front suspension to replace the Beetle torsion bars..

Re: Buggy rear suspension.
Yes. Any idea when they plan to 'launch'??
I am dabbling with the idea of a raised buggy that can be used on gravel or sand but is not just a 'pypkar'.
Cheers
