Adjustable swing plates for ‘56

[RandyV]

Just want to be 100% sure. I had some adjustable swing plates on my ‘63 back in the day but I know the torsion caps were solid & didn’t stick out beyond the caps. My ‘56 they stick out a few inches beyond the s torsion caps.

Can these be used on my ‘56??? ——> https://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=2456409

Thank you! Glad I asked!! I don’t really even *need* them as I’m hoping to balance my saggy rear with a mildly dropped front when I do it.

Just a cheap grab. But if I really want I’ll definitely go kaddie as I’m in So cal too. (Chino) 😉

And I will NEVER do urethane bushings again as I see on kaddie’s site as those were the noisiest thing I ever heard. (Hated ‘em on my ‘63)

Think my saggy rear is saggy enough?

I hear you about the Urethane bushings, maybe try and replacing your bushings or maybe your shocks ?

Getting back to this....(time coming up now)

Anything in particular made you decide to not install these??

You'd still have to pull your own plates to do the drop so not sure what else would make swapping out more difficult?

TIA
