Restore Strength Where It Matters — 1950–1977 VW Jack Support Plate RH | 111701478
If you're restoring or maintaining your classic air-cooled Volkswagen, don’t overlook the importance of solid foundation points—especially where you lift the car. This Right-Hand Jack Support Plate (VW part #111701478) is a direct-fit replacement for 1950–1977 Beetle models and plays a crucial role in safe jacking and body support. Whether you're replacing rusted originals or patching up accident damage, this stamped steel panel gets the job done with factory-style precision.
