I found this rear air bag kit for 69-74 IRS Beetles from steetbeatcustoms.com. They are bolt on kits according to their add. Part # ARK4900, for about $350.00 bucks. Looks like a good deal as long as they work. You still need to add a air management system but for starters, sound good. Beats fabricating your own stuff! Any opinions on these kits, let me know please......

Thanks one and all.......

I don't see where they would bolt on to the spring plates ? That is for a frame rail & leaf spring . Airkewled is the ones with a good rear setup .

Yea. I'm going to give Streetbeat a call, cause I don't think I'm getting the whole story. I'll post their response...

They also have this on their site. Its called an Easy Street setup that was originally sold thru AirRide Suspensions. Has anyone ever seen these? Also a bolt on. A little more pricey.
