    My mate fitted an Everesto kit to his beetle. It was a work of art. Beautiful to fit and the communication from Max was fantastic. Quality all round.

    I have dealt with Max from Evaresto and he is truly the most knowledgeable and helpful bloke in the VW scene, and his air suspension kits are the best quality i have come across

    So excited to see the EvaResto air ride go in the Auto Union. I recently received my air ride from Max for my ‘63 beetle. It will be a late summer project for me so I’m stoked to see the set up in the Auto Union. Cheers to EvaResto and Bagriders for great parts and great customer service. And thank you John for the inspiration.

    The old school VWs did come with safety wire in the bolts.

  • @jasonwatson4606
    @jasonwatson4606 3 місяці тому

    Check your air shock collapse length and size of tire. You can probably shrink your shock tower to clear the body as needed.
    I enjoy your channel. Easy watching.

    Absolutely the wire is stock in the backing plate bolts I’ve also ran into it a couple of times 👍🏻

  • @PetesCreativeRecycling
    @PetesCreativeRecycling 3 місяці тому +2

    I love this aircooled channel! Also, I've never seen ANYTHING that's OEM safety wired on a beetle, but I have always done it any time I replace or upgrade anything on one of mine, granted I've never had one older than 67, so maybe the really old ones did. I sold a 67 beetle pan about 20 years ago or so, and I did the same safety wire through the bolts when I replaced the drum pads and wheel bearings. This one isn't by chance a 67 from Florida is it?

    Hey John big fan of the show! Probably a bit late as that beam has gone around the globe, and I'm not sure if it's been mentioned but you could run a single bag beam with no shock towers and there would be no need to cut the body up for those shock towers. Can't wait to see it on the floor!

  • @thatsonebadhatharry8610
    @thatsonebadhatharry8610 3 місяці тому

    Since it's just going to be trunk space, now that the engine is in the back, you can chop it up any way you need it to be. You just have to re-brace the area around the cut out. That is as long as it doesn't come out the top of the fender.😁

  • @jeyweb4236
    @jeyweb4236 3 місяці тому

    Stay Wide 5 with the bolt pattern! Add a set of Appliance Wheels (Pacer)
    Go with a single bag front beam without shocks.

  • @hedrives
    @hedrives 2 місяці тому

    VW stopped safety wiring the bolts in January 1960. They strated using bolts with thinner heads and no safety wire after that. Torque spec went up to 36 ft/lbs, too

  • @retrophil8241

    Would it be a good idea to wire wheel and paint everything on the Beetle pan before you start bolting the Everesto kit?

    • @JohnLudwick

    How long did it take to get your order from them ? I’ve been waiting over a month for my order and nothing so far . Sent an email a week ago for an eta and no reply.

    • @eva_resto
      @eva_resto 3 місяці тому

      Hey man. Sorry for this! I do emails a couple of times a week, my apologies if you’re waiting for an answer. Kits are taking 4-5 weeks to build at the moment since we have so many in build right now, and we make 95% of the parts in them ourselves.
      I’ll be catching up on some emails later on, if you don’t hear back please drop me another.
      Many thanks for your patience so far…

    Yeah, no. Someone went above and beyond to wire those front backing plate bolts.
