SOFTENING FRONT SUSPENSION
Because the Aztec 7 fiberglass body is lighter than the Volkswagen body, the front suspension must be modified or
"softened," to compensate for the weight reduction.
Tools Required
Wrenches
Screwdrivers
Scribe
Welding torch -Optional
Refer to Figure 5a and Figure 5b
1. Place the front of the chassis on jack stands.
2. Disconnect the brake lines on each side of the l-beam, by removing the holding clips and unscrewing the
connecting lines.
3. Disconnect the front suspension from the chassis, by removing the four bolts on the l-beams.
4. Scribe two lines around the lower torsion bar tube housing, 2" to the right and 2" to the left of the center bolt on
the tube. .
5. Using a pipe cutter, cut around the torsion bar tube housing, along the lines scribed in Step 5. Cut only through
the tube housing do not cut the torsion bars enclosed within the housing.
6. Re-install the front end on the chassis. Do not re-connect the brake lines and steering damper at this time if you
plan to do your own welding. When the procedure is complete, the 4" cut portion of the housing (with the center
bolt) should move freely from the remainder of the housing when weight is applied.
7. Place approximately 175 lbs. of weight on the front of the I-beam. (A person standing on the l-beam will
accomplish this.) With the proper weight applied, the lower torsion bar should be 8" from the ground.
8. Tack weld the center portion of the tube housing back to the sides of the tube housing in the same, weighted
position obtained in Step 7.
(NOTE: All welding can be done when the car is totally assembled. The car can
be driven to a gas station for welding.)
9. Remove the I-beam from the chassis and permanently weld the center of the torsion bar tube housing to the side
housing.
10. Re-install the I-beam onto the chassis. Reconnect the brake lines using the original clips, etc.
NOTE: Step #8 to be done with tires to be used on chassis.
NOTE: Stock VW shocks are recommended. The height can be reduced by cutting the rubber stops at the top of shocks
in half.
