hi there
I need to change my front shocks ( VW bug 1970 irs ) kit car
I wonder if I install the opel shocks ( 2 inches shorter ) do will lower my car those 2 inches ???
In the future ( due to $$ mula $$ ) I will install an adjustable beam,, but that is in the future
but I really would like to lower the front of my car,
Can the opel front shocks can do the trick ???
Does anyone have any previous experience ???
I hope you can answer my question
thank you in advance
God bless |

| No, shocks do not affect the ride height on a stock VW front end. |

Shocks have nothing to do with the ride height of your car. They only control rebound and compression.
To lower your car you need an adjustable beam or dropped spindles. |

Or cut and turn the center section of the torsion beam
