What do i need to lower the rear of my 71 vw superbeetle?

i don't want air or anything like that, just want to know the simple things. i know for front you need adjustable struts and inserts. do you need them for the back as well, and if so do you also need to mess with your tension bars?What do i need to lower the rear of my 71 vw superbeetle?No new parts. Disassemble the torsion springs and adjust there height. Good source is the Robert Bentleys repair manual.What do i need to lower the rear of my 71 vw superbeetle?Theres a guy here in Placentia that specializes in the SB.



He along with most other places sell the drop springs, shocks you'll need to do it right. Also replace your bushings at the same time.



The rear is difficult but not bad but its a lot of trial and error by reclocking there positions.
