SWAY BARS

Precision Engineering for Every Chassis We offer technical solutions tailored to the specific year ranges and suspension designs of the VW lineup:

• Standard & Lowered Beetle Bars: We stock performance 3/4-inch front sway bars for both early King Pin (1946–1965) and later Ball Joint (1966–1979) front ends. For those running narrowed or adjusted beams, we offer specialized "lowered" versions designed to provide maximum ground clearance without sacrificing performance.

• Super Beetle Specialists: Correct the front-end geometry of your Super Beetle with 3/4-inch bars designed for the unique MacPherson strut system, available for both early (up to 1973) and late (1974-and-later) models.

• Rear Stability Solutions: Balance your handling with a rear sway bar for IRS (Independent Rear Suspension) or a Camber Compensator for Swing Axle models. These components are vital for reducing the "tucking" effect and oversteer common in early air-cooled designs.

• Heavy-Duty Bus Upgrades: For the Type 2 Transporter and Camper, we provide massive 7/8-inch front and rear sway bars. These are essential for managing the high center of gravity and crosswind sensitivity of the classic VW Bus.

The Complete Performance Package A sway bar is only as effective as its mounting hardware. Our inventory includes heavy-duty sway bar mounting kits, reinforced clamps, and high-durometer urethane bushings from trusted brands like EMPI and Bugpack. These components ensure that every bit of lateral force is managed by the bar rather than being lost to bushing deflection. For those seeking the ultimate in chassis rigidity, we also offer Rear Truss Bar Kits and engine braces to eliminate frame-horn flex under high-torque loads.

Expert Quality and Fast Value At Appletree Auto, we specialize in the parts that allow the air-cooled community to build with vision and technical excellence. We understand that in a custom project, the difference between a "good" ride and a "great" ride is in the details of your suspension tuning.
