Achieve the Perfect Stance with EMPI 2.5" Drop Spindles Upgrade your classic VW or Karmann Ghia with these premium, 2.5-inch drop spindles—the essential first step for any disc brake conversion and lowering project. These aren't re-manufactured parts; they are brand-new, high-quality units from EMPI, engineered for performance and precision. Each spindle is forged and CNC-machined to exact tolerances, providing superior strength and reliability. Key Benefits: Instant Lowering: Automatically drops your front end by 2.5 inches simply by bolting them on. Preserves Factory Feel: Designed to utilize the original steering geometry and accommodate stock shocks, ensuring the excellent handling and ride of your vehicle are fully maintained. Disc Brake Ready: Perfectly compatible with both 4-lug (4x130) and 5-lug (5x130) disc brake setups. Important Notes on Fitment: Compatibility: Fits 1954-1965 Beetles and 1956-1965 Karmann Ghias. Tire Clearance: Due to the drop, shorter, smaller-diameter tires are required for proper clearance and drivability, especially when cornering or carrying heavier loads. Stock-sized tires will rub.
