Title: torsion bar advice Post by: Rocket Ron on June 30, 2009, 10:33:26 am my rear torsion bars have had it, would you replace them with 26mm rears or vw bars
my car does about 3000miles and about 12 trips up the strip a year thanks in advance Ron Title: Re: torsion bar advice Post by: Lee.C on June 30, 2009, 13:26:59 pm I would go with some stock vw items dude - you can't beat original vw stuff :)
Title: Re: torsion bar advice Post by: Sam K on July 01, 2009, 03:13:44 am I agree. I had 28mm torsions on my '67 for several years and it rode like a truck, plus I had a dificult time finding a ride height that I liked while still retaining any pre-load in the bars even with adjustable spring plates. Last summer I put in a nice used set of stock bars and I couldn't be happier with them. I'm going to put the 28's in my race bug project where they belong.
