Looks great! I'm glad to see a balljoint/IRS baja. I keep reading about IRS and Balljoint not making the best bajas. I'm slowly getting around to getting my '74 bug offroadable. I must ask though, did you re-spline the rear axel? Happy buggin'!

What is involved with switching over from a balljoint front to a long travel King? I have a 72STD and would like a long travel set up.

wondering about the IRS, honestly im not a VW guy but trying to get into it since the high gas prices forced me to sell my full size bronco, been doing alot of reading and everyone seems to hate the IRS, any major modifications done, will just some good shocks and maybe some chassis bracing hold it up thanks, nice car

Anyone that told you they don't like the IRS is an idiot. You can lift without the typical VW wheel tilt and it gives you better handling on and off road. By the way you can box in the trailing arms and they WILL NOT BREAK. Not that they're weak in the first place.
