  • I agree it's a bitch to get the spring plates cleared of the step! Took a couple days and a big lever but ultimately not hard. Also to others asking, as far as I'm aware you cannot lower a bug with this method because the torsion bars in a bug are made up of leaves stacked to form a square rod rather than a splined cylindrical rod.

  • great tutorial dude!! much appreciated! 

  • will this be the same for a 65 bug?

  • 3:39 So, My stock fasty will be a bitch to do? It's stock, and been ia field most it's life.

  • awesome tech! my 67 bug thanks you.

  • damn, i wish it was as easy as you make it, im trying right now and it has taken about an hour to get the springplate off the lip half way, so tomorro i will try some more....

  • Great work! Thanks for taking the time to put this video together!

  • Thank you so much! I have been searching for step by step instructions for MONTHS so I can lower and raise my bug the right way, and I couldnt find anything. This is so great. Thank you. Keep it up!
