Product Details

If you have lowering springs on your 1973-1974 Volkswagen Thing, the Bilstein B8 shocks are the other half of the job. Standard-length dampers run out of travel on a lowered car; these are made for it.

Bilstein has built suspension in Germany since 1954, and supplies the same engineering to manufacturers as original equipment. The build quality is the reason these outlast what they replace, and they are covered by a limited lifetime warranty.

Features

  • For use with lowering spring sets and production sport suspensions
  • Enhanced safety and performance with lowering spring change
  • Sporty feel while maintaining comfort
