**NCA** Splitscreen Bus Straight Axle Conversion Kit - With 2" Drop Adjustable Spring Plates (Deluxe)

Spacers required when installing an IRS or Swing Axle Conversion onto a Splitscreen Bus to take up the slack of the conduit on the handbrake cable to the backing plates.

These tubes fit on the conduit closest to the front of the van where the cable/conduit enters the chassis.

The return spring on each cable needs to be cut down by roughly the same length of the spacer. 

You may need to take a little material off the threaded section on the cable itself if it does not fit through the tube extender.

This allows you to install 1964 to 1967 Splitscreen Bus handbrake cables.

These adjustable spring plates are for use on all VW Splitscreen Buses that have had a straight axle conversion installed using modified Beetle axle tubes.  This is the most common straight axle conversion kit available that DOES NOT use adaptor plates bolted to the end of the Spring Plate. 

See our Straight Axle Conversion Kit SABEETLEADJ for more details.

These adjustable spring plates feature a 2″ drop over standard spring plates.  They are also manufactured slightly longer than the standard length spring plate which helps to set up the geometry of the rear suspension.

PLEASE NOTE: When installing a Straight Axle Conversion Kit onto your Splitscreen Bus it automatically lowers the rear of your Bus around 2-3″ from standard.  These spring plates will lower the bus a further 2″.

Adjustable spring plates are a must for Straight Axle conversions. Just try changing your rear wheel at the side of the road with standard springplates – Good Luck!!!

Easy and quick adjustment of your rear suspension height without having to strip your whole rear end apart.
