Now you can get over 3" of adjustment but still be riding in comfort and safety, while keeping some of your hard earned dough. These plates actually work when you want to drop, raise, or fine tune your ride around factory height unlike the common adjustable plates, which were made only for adjustment at stock heights.
These plates are sold in pairs and are constructed from laser cut, 1/4” thick (factory thickness is only 3/16”), grade 50 super-strong spring plates, and 1026 carbon steel Spline Stubs. The design upgrade includes stainless steel adjuster tabs that are now bolted on with rated stainless steel bolts. We offer these plates with instructions and all the technical support that is necessary to install on your VW headache free. Our powder coated Drop/Raise Plates are two-tone with a matte black and alien silver, which is far more durable and beautiful than the industry-standard cheap zinc coatings that you will find on most suspension components.
They come in the following increments:
IRS:
Stock Height
2.5” Drop
2” Raise
3” Raise
Benefits:

Lowers and/or raises your VW without sacrificing ride quality
Adjust your ride on the fly!

Billet Dust Covers
Our medium-stub and long-stub (not short stub) spring plates are designed with open ends on purpose so that the torsion bar can be installed from the outside if the installer chooses to. Click here to see. However for those who insist on a clean look and do not want the torsion bar exposed to the elements, we manufacture dust covers. They are made from either billet aluminum or billet stainless steel, and use 3 set screws to hold firmly into place.
We have brought back the rolling element bearing to the rear suspension due to popular demand, and these are even better than before! If you have a big engine, this kit should be considered a must! Stop wasting your horsepower in wheel hop and put your power to the road! This kit will reduce or completely eliminate wheel hop, which allows your car to hook up, instead of spin the tires in vibration. Additionally, it allows your tires to experience more road time, both in acceleration and in cornering, because it frees up the friction that bushings impose on your suspension. These sets eliminate the bushings entirely and replace them with precision ground roller bearings.
All of the parts in this kit are precision CNC machined! The sealed roller bearings are made of hardened steel that cannot not deflect. This setup is far superior to bronze or plastic bushings, since they do not endure grinding as those non-sealed setups do. Additionally, Urethane and Delrin sill deflect under loads as well as breakdown over time due to exposure to the sun. Don’t be fooled by the hype - our steel rolling element bearings are superior to all bronze or polymer setups across the board; they are stiffer, they free up your suspension to react better to the road, and they far outlast all bushings!
