EMPI 22-3850-0 Forged 2.5" Drop Spindle Set King Link Pin Disc Brake

The EMPI 22-3850-0 is a forged 2.5-inch drop spindle set designed for VW Type 1 Beetle models with king and link pin suspension and disc brake systems using 4-piston calipers. These spindles are engineered to lower the front end of your Beetle while maintaining proper steering geometry and improving overall handling characteristics.

Key Features:

• Forged construction like original equipment for superior strength and dimensional accuracy
• 2.5-inch drop lowers center of gravity and improves handling
• 10.3mm offset design maintains proper steering geometry
• Compatible with disc brake applications and Wilwood 4-piston calipers
• Eliminates common alignment issues associated with aftermarket spindles
• Allows use of stock replacement shocks
• Sold as a complete pair (left and right)

These drop spindles are manufactured exclusively by EMPI using a forging process that ensures they are stronger and more dimensionally accurate than cast alternatives. The 2.5-inch drop provides the classic lowered stance while improving handling by lowering the vehicle's center of gravity. Note that shorter, smaller-diameter tires may be required to prevent rubbing during operation.
