Just putting the word out I will be stocking limited numbers of Ridemaster custom vw suspension parts. Parts range from complete beam setups to beam kits and sideplates. This isn't your everyday garage made "custom beam" All beams are built from scratch no hacked up og beams. All parts are cut on a state of the art laser jet machine not bubba's torch. These are about the best thing you can do if you want to lower your aircooled vw. Complete setups are serial numbered and supplied in limited amounts.

Price list to follow. 1st shipment will be arriving for Bugapalooza!
For those of us with smaller pockets I will be offering complete unassembled  beam kits. So if you can weld you can assemble your own.
Also available: sideplates for type 2 beam builds and various applications.

Forgot to mention the owner of the company insist on quality installation. He is not a shade tree kinda guy by any means.
Rick will be the local certified installer/fabricator as well as myself. I do not reccomend newbies to install these kits or fabricate pre made kits on their own. I will have a jig and soon so will Rick. These are not stock at all , there are many variables when dealing with lowered suspensions and alot of tricks that are built in to these beams that you dont get with factory hack beam jobs.
These beams can lay pan with or without drop spidles,you should speak to a rep for recomendations before spending your hard earned dollars.

Another pic when I was getting everything together for the 62.

Just got off the phone with the owner of Ridemaster I should have the following at Bugapalooza:

1 Complete deluxe beam in raw finish for display
Several beam kits 4-6inch narrowed
Narrowed custom built tie rods and hardware
2 sets each or more of just about every side plate/gusset you can think of.

Vending didn't go to well for most of us but no biggie. Made alot of contacs with othe rbusiness owners who are placing orders so in the end it came out pretty good.
When ever you get ready let me know and I'll take a look at it and discuss options. To start the best option would be just a simple set of drop spindles to get rid of the gap.

I dont know about that ! Jack of BUGSTUFF left sun morn VERY happy, said he made alot of money!
