handling for the standard beetle

[havik180]

Just curious what you guys with the stanard bettles do for suspension ? Ball-joint or link-pin ? Do you run coil overs ? what brand ? WHat about for the rear ?

I've seen a few oval's and Ghia's on the track ,I'd like to know what the options are !

The most common std front mods include bilsteins or koni's. A ball joint setup is the preferred choice for cornering between link or ball joint.

Also a whiteline swaybar is a popular choice for handling improvements (aircooled.net). They are adjustable and very well made. check out some tech articles and search on google.
