Has any body tried or know anything of the DDB (
www.theddb.com) air suspension kit? It bolts straight on instead of welding, sounds a lot easier to me!
Just wondered before i threw my money away! TA!

Probably best to ask on the e-mail group
www.vwtype3.org as the guys who make them and use them are on there.

I rang these dudes over in the USA and this kit on the clip sets you back 2425.00$$ + 300$$ shipping....

Forget about the one from the US. It uses bags to replace the shocks which is illegal over here because you need to retain a damper.
Retrodubs in Cornwall are working on a solution using air shocks.

It's the one I was considering.. Unless you can figure out some kind of damper mount for alongside the bag of course
