Beetle front suspension vs. Thing

VW's aircooled mini SUV. Great for riding in the country, or cruising the beach.

Lower control arms & spindles for sure, maybe upper control arms (I don't recall) - all of the balljoints point down. The shock towers are reinforced and they have little struts that come out from the front corner body-to-pan bolts to brace the ends of the beam. http://briefcase.yahoo.com/bc/mrbaja/vw ... /MrBaja%2b file%26.src=bc%26.view=l
