Beetle 2" Narrowed Anti Roll Bar - 1950-65

Specifically designed for early Type 1 models, this heavy-duty 2″ narrowed anti-roll bar kit is engineered to suit king and link pin front suspension with a 2″ narrowed beam. It restores proper anti-roll functionality on modified front ends while delivering a major improvement in handling and stability.

On narrowed beam setups, the original anti-roll bar no longer aligns correctly. This uprated version is built to the correct width, ensuring a perfect fit while significantly improving chassis control—especially important on lowered or custom vehicles.

Constructed from solid 3/4″ steel, this anti-roll bar links both front trailing arms together to resist body roll during cornering. As weight transfers to the outside wheel, the bar twists and distributes load across both sides of the suspension, helping keep the vehicle level. This improves tyre contact, steering response and overall grip, particularly noticeable in fast bends and spirited driving.

Supplied with durable red urethane bushes, this kit reduces flex compared to standard rubber bushes, allowing the anti-roll bar to react more quickly and accurately to suspension movement while maintaining long service life.

Key Features

• Designed for 2″ narrowed king & link pin front beams
• Heavy-duty 3/4″ solid anti-roll bar
• Reduces body roll and improves cornering stability
• Enhances steering response and front-end control
• Supplied with uprated red urethane bushes
• Ideal for lowered, custom and performance builds

How It Works
The anti-roll bar connects the left and right front suspension arms. When cornering forces cause one side to compress more than the other, the bar resists this difference by twisting, helping to keep the car flatter and more stable. This improves traction and reduces excessive body lean.

Important Notes

• For use with king and link pin front suspension only (pre-1965 models)
• Requires your original mounting clamps
• Optional stainless steel clamps available separately
