front beam mods for improvement

hey
Im not happy with the ride and handling of the front of my bug, the front is a quite harsh ride, any suggestions for improvements??
currently got spax shocks, adjustable front beam, wound down, uprated anti roll bar and porsche 944 brake setup. The track is too wide really and could do with being narrower!

currently thinking
coil over suspension setup as red nine but, home brewed
narrowed front beam, about an inch or two
dropped spindles

Im thinking the dropped spindles mean further before the balljoints bottom out, narrowing because dropped spindles will push the wheels out into arches.
coilover setup so the suspension can be dialed into my preffered height.

may also shorten top tube on the beam to give greater camber.

any thoughts??
