Split Screen Stock Width Deluxe Front Air Ride Kit Beam / Front Air Kit (Bolt on)

Classic Aircooled VW Front Air Ride Kits parts by Limebug

Finally, our complete front air ride assembly for T2 Split Screen Platform, breakdown of each component included below:

Split Screen Stock Width Jawbreaker beam

Built around versatile design including direct mount with no body / chassis modification for Narrowed and Stock width models, flexibility for Air Ride and Static applications as standard, ambidextrous fixings for LHD and RHD models as well as both a factory and 1” beam raise built into every end plate.

Combining this with an increase in castor over factory axle design to achieve improved road holding, particularly at speed whilst also reducing lane wander. Fixed via dual adjusters on both upper and lower CDS single piece beam tube’s and linked to the spindles via our own design raised/ tucked steering pin mount.

Each steering pin is relocated tighter to the beam, both counteracting the effect of increased castor in reference the drag link rod whilst most importantly resolving ackermann angle issues on our 2” and 4” narrowed models. 

This increases both lock-to-lock travel whilst reducing steering weight at slower speeds.

Consideration has been given to each van / bus running it’s own unique ride height and wheel choice therefore each beam is furnished with a low profile adjustable steering stop to set limit points in order to prevent fouling.

Further to these features we offer CNC’d Torsion Leaves / Through Rods depending on your application, plus solid core Track Rods pre-narrowed and ready to install as well as brake servo mounts. See options and links below.

T2 Bay Window / Split Screen RHD / LHD up to 4″ Narrowed Track / Tie Rods

High grade CDS turned seamless tubing is the foundation to building up our track rods, twinned with optional OE quality track rod ends and a hard wearing durable powder coat, this is the only sensible way to narrow your VW Bay / Split.

We also produce these track rods in a stock width, meaning when the track rod end wears out you are not stuck with having to throw away the long rod as factory ends are crimped into place.

These feature, German Quality Track Rod Ends, and UK manufactured Track Rods. All Rods are made to our Width guides, and suited to LHD or RHD Appropriately.

Options:

– Track Width upto 4″ Narrowed Available. All track rods feature adjustment slots for easy tracking alignment.
– Hardware includes 2x LH and 2x RH threaded pinch nuts for security when fitted.
– M10 or M12 Stud Sizes available in all four configurations.

Management Options

Management Systems are available to suit all requirements, whether space is confined or you require a more advanced set-up.

2 Way Manual Kit is available in both tankless and with tank formats. These both are an analogue set-up with paddle switches to lift/drop the vehicle and dual needle gauges to monitor pressures. With 2 Way Set-ups this allows the control of each front corner individually to fine tune ride height.

Digital systems are also available such as Airlift 3P. With this set-up, you have simplistic installation and benefit from features such as ride height pre-sets and rise on start up, to prevent driving away without lifting the vehicle. These systems typically operate on a 4-way basis (to control 4 corners individually) however if only running air on the front you can operate this by just using 2 ports on the systems manifold.
