Beetle Gearbox Strap Kit With Padding (Front Only)

Upgrade your Volkswagen’s drivetrain stability with these padded gearbox straps, designed to deliver the perfect blend of performance and comfort. This front strap kit allows you to retain your original stock gearbox mounts while reinforcing the frame horns, a crucial area that often flexes under hard acceleration and torque loads. These straps provide added support without sacrificing the factory feel.

Unlike solid mounts that transmit vibration directly into the chassis, these straps feature a specially molded rubber extrusion that cushions the mounting points. This effectively reduces noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) while enhancing overall rigidity—ideal for hard-driven street cars and weekend racers. Whether you`re building a performance Beetle or restoring a fast-road Ghia, this product delivers enhanced driveline support with minimal compromise.

This kit is for the front only and is compatible with the following aircooled VW models from 1960 onwards:

• Volkswagen Beetle (Type 1)

• Volkswagen Karmann Ghia

• Volkswagen Type 3 (Notchback, Fastback, Squareback)

Installation Note: This front-only kit works with stock rear gearbox mounts and is recommended for use with strong, healthy frame horns. Welding or drilling may be required depending on application and performance upgrades.
