1950–1965 Narrowed Front Torsion Spring – Fits King Pin Beam
A smoother ride for your vintage Beetle or Karmann Ghia is just a spring swap away.

Just like the factory version, this spring provides the support your VW King and Link Pin front end needs while maintaining proper twist resistance and travel.
