EMPI Forged Lower Trailing Arm for VW Beetle Link Pin Front Beam, Pre-1965

A bent lower trailing arm throws off front end geometry and leaves the steering vague, and an old forging is rarely worth straightening. EMPI reproduced the original lower arm for pre-1965 Beetle link pin beams using 3D modeling and CAD, and forges it in alloy steel like the factory part.

Fitment & Compatibility

For pre-1965 VW Type 1 Beetle link pin front beams. Consult a VW link pin shim chart when assembling, as shimming sets end play at the link pins. VW moved to ball joint front ends for 1966, so confirm the beam type before ordering. PMB Performance has worked with air-cooled Volkswagen and Porsche parts for over 20 years. Send us your chassis details if you want fitment confirmed before ordering.
