Adjustable offset spring plates for 1955-67 Volkswagen bus

Description

1955-67 adjustable offset spring plates, Original Wagenswest stuff here, adopted worldwide. These plates enable you to lower the rear of your pre 1967 Volkswagen bus 3.5 inches by swapping the reduction gear transmission with an OEM VW long axle type one or type three, swing axle transmission. You can also use < 1967 type one trans-axles but you will need to space your wheels out, as the track width is shorter.

All of our offset spring plates come with custom shock mounts attached.

This kit comes with adjustable offset spring plates and and spring plate cap spacer hardware.

We also have some add-ons available bellow that you might need. Like parking brake spacers, new rubber bushings and Wagenswest billet spring plate covers.
