Why not replace your knackered old reduction boxes with this straight axle conversion for any 1955-1967 camper and van. This is the least expensive way to lower the rear 3 to 4 inches (short-travel shocks required) and take advantage of the higher gearing of a Beetle gearbox. Kits include special length axle tubes, Brand new gold-anodized spring plates, gearbox gasket set, rear axle seal kits, brake cable extension tubes and the instructions to complete the conversion. This is not a complete kit and will require other items depending on the year of your bus. You can source these parts
