Beetle IRS Chrome Rear Torsion Bar Covers (Also Karmann Ghia)

These Type 1 Chrome Torsion Bar Covers are a stylish and durable upgrade designed to replace the original torsion bar end caps fitted to IRS and Swing Axle Volkswagen models. Suitable for Beetles, Karmann Ghias, and Type 3s, these covers offer a bright and clean chrome finish that instantly refreshes the rear suspension area—ideal for restoration projects, show cars, or anyone wanting to tidy up old, rusted factory caps.

Manufactured from strong steel and finished in Sunny Climate chrome, these covers fit directly in place of the standard torsion bar caps, offering both cosmetic improvement and long-term protection for the torsion bar ends. With years of road grime, moisture, and corrosion commonly affecting the originals, replacing them with these chrome versions is a simple upgrade that makes a noticeable difference to the look of your underbody.

These covers are suitable for:

• IRS rear suspension (1968 onwards on most Type 1 and Type 3 models)

• Swing Axle models (early Beetle, Ghia, Type 3 variants)

They reinstall using the same mounting hardware as the original caps. While original bolts can often be reused, many restorers choose to replace old fixings at the same time to complete the job to a high standard.

Quantity:
Sold as a pair (left + right rear torsion bar covers)

A great finishing touch for any classic VW rear suspension rebuild or cosmetic refresh.

PLEASE NOTE: These are finished in Sunny Climate Chrome and we offer no warranty over the finish.
