Stage 2 PRObuilt Air Ride Beam Complete – 2207 – https://www.airkewld.com/Stage-2-PRObuilt-Air-Ride-Beam-Complete-2207-p/2207.htm
The dilemma, how to narrow a type 3 front end? You can’t. You want to lower it to get some ride back. Drop spindles, right? Not likely. Solve the problem completely with a PRObuilt beam that does both and gives you 7″ of up and down movement when controlled with an air management kit. Ride quality, check. Drop, check. Bolt on solution, check. Install your factory disc brakes, check. Want to install 4 piston Wilwood and finally have performance braking? Check. Pretty soon, you start looking at all those checked boxes and the decision is simple. Go PRObuilt!
The Stage 2 PRO-Built Beam is built to order and can take up to 2 months to assemble. Please be patient as we supply you with the industries best front suspension.
This Stage 2 complete 4″ narrowed front end is spindle to spindle, built on Air Ride. Comes powder coated or chrome plated, ready to install. The beam will fit all Type 3 Squareback’s, Notchback’s and Fastback’s, even the type 34 Razor.
The installation of this beam requires a couple minor mods. It requires two holes drilled into the trunk section for the shock studs, trimming of the pinch mold on the front bulkhead and the bottom mounts. For more info on the mods, please read the install article here.
The front end comes complete with the following;
New Ultimate Air Ride Beam
New Through Rods
New Tie rods
New Shocks
New Drop Spindles
New Steering Dampener
New Hardware
New Zerks
German Tie rod Ends
Lowered Ball Joints
TRW Steering Box
ReConditioned Pitman Arm/Clamp

New eccentrics.
The front end will be coated apart and assembled to keep the clean looks with new hardware. It will be adjusted to the highest setting so that you can lower it to your liking. The front end will be greased and alignment will be set in rough application so that it can be shipped on a pallet. Shipping will be calculated separate. No Core is needed. Brakes are not included but can be for an additional cost.

You need to have 15″ and larger wheels for our disc brakes to work.

Recommendations
We recommend the installation kit with every disc brake kit we offer. This kit comes with FAG German roller bearings, stainless steel flexible brake hoses, brake reservoir and a pair of new brake light switches.
Why BAD Series Brakes?
Are you tired of adjusting your brakes just to have a subpar brake feel? Do you have to pump your pedal 100 yards before a stop light? Are you trying to fit custom wheels on your ride? Are you tired of buying cheap imported parts? If you answered yes to any of the above questions, the BAD Series Disc brake kit is what you need! My biggest recommendation is for you to only spend your money once. In doing that, make sure you get all the parts needed to do the install right the first time.
Pros versus Cons
Warranty, weight, options, made in the USA and the ability to use any spindle, dropped or stock height. A lifetime warranty on our rotors as well. Some of our competitors disc brake kits can be in excess of 76lbs per axle. Our heaviest kit weighs in at 48lbs. Our rotors, Wilwood calipers, brackets, etc. are made in the USA. No one else can say that.
The biggest differences are the rotors. The rotors are made of three parts; hub, the bolt pattern and the rotor. All these parts are made in the USA with high end CNC machines. These rotors allow you to use year specific bearing seals and dust caps. The BAD Series rotors have a lifetime warranty as well. If you wear one out, we will send you a new one free, just pay shipping. These hubs allow the interchanging of bolt patterns. What does this mean? If you order them with a Chevrolet 5×4.75 bolt pattern and a few months later you want to install Porsche wheels, you can! All it takes is removing the bolt patterns from the rotors and installing the new ones. Each pattern is sold separately. The last difference is the ability to add a performance caliper to your car.
