  • Suspension upgrade - camber compensator VW Beetle.
    So this video goes over the installation procedures for camber compensator on a VW Beetle. This improves handling, reduces cross wind buffering, and assists with steering.
    I bought this particular one from CB Performance. The link is below:

    Hey man,
    I'm liking your channel you've had some great content.
    Q. How far is this hanging down in the centre.
    ✌ peace.

    • @VitosFix
      @VitosFix  3 года назад

      The u-bolt (in the center) is about a 16th of an inch from the bottom of the transaxle. Pushed it up as much as I could.

    Yeah, my trans plates are quite eroded under those nuts. I decided not to risk it, and never installed it...

    Vito just found your channel. Like all videos about VW. What size engine did you build? Where did you buy your tin for engine?

    • @VitosFix
      @VitosFix  3 года назад

      Thanks! It’s a 1776vv, 1963 block.
      Bought the tins from CB Performance. Let me know if you have any other questions!

    I have heard, the installation of that center piece on the transaxle. Causes leaks from the seals of those side covers. Have you experienced this? I want one, but not at the expense of a leaking transaxle.

    • @VitosFix

      I didn’t have any issues, but it was a new tranny as well.
      But, you could always get longer studs to help with the torque.

    Great info, Alway wondered if the “Camber Compensator” is a worth while investment. You mention that you had one on another car, how did that make a difference in everyday driving?

    • @VitosFix
      @VitosFix  3 года назад +1

      I like it, makes a difference. I think it’s worth the $90. I would suggest getting the longer studs for the bottom of the trans though. When you’re wanting to help the suspension, but not spend a lot of money, this is great!

    It appears to pull the axles downwards, does it? Did it raise the height a bit?

    • @VitosFix
      @VitosFix  Год назад +1

      Doesn’t pull it downward from the normal height.

    I have two inch drop plates on my 64 do you think it will work with the drop plates?

    • @VitosFix
      @VitosFix  2 года назад +1

      I believe it will!

  • @EZoMack1
    @EZoMack1 2 года назад +1

    does this help with body roll? have a 67 with swing axle n got major body roll on the highway.

    • @VitosFix
      @VitosFix  2 года назад

      Sure does! I would get new gas shocks for the front, back, and a better anti-sway bar for the front as well.

    • @EZoMack1
      @EZoMack1 2 года назад +1

      @@VitosFix , so I def need to upgrade my shocks. I recently upgraded the front sway bar with a 3/4" but still have major body roll. Will the camber compensator work with the z- bar?

    • @VitosFix
      @VitosFix  2 года назад

      The website is saying that it will not work with the Z-Bar. I would give them a call tomorrow though and ask why not.

    That’s scary. Don’t like the way that is hooked up to the transmission.

      It’s a good thing I promise!
