Get the steering geometry right on your narrowed VW with these pre-shortened EMPI tie rods. When you narrow a ball joint front beam, the stock tie rods are too long and won't connect properly — these are precision-engineered to the correct length for 2- to 4-inch narrowed beams, ensuring accurate toe alignment and responsive steering.

Sold as a complete left and right set, made from high-tensile tubular steel with a black corrosion-resistant finish. These are a direct replacement for any 2–4 inch narrowed ball joint beam setup on a standard Beetle or Karmann Ghia.

  • Includes: 1 left tie rod, 1 right tie rod
  • Material: High-tensile tubular steel
  • Finish: Black corrosion-resistant coating
  • Weight: 4.8 lbs
  • Dimensions: 30 x 3 x 3 in
  • For 2- to 4-inch narrowed ball joint beams
  • Does NOT fit Super Beetle strut-style or king/link pin front ends

Fitment: 1966–1977 VW Beetle (standard, NOT Super Beetle) and 1966–1974 Karmann Ghia with ball joint front suspension and a 2- to 4-inch narrowed beam. Also compatible with many custom narrowed ball joint beams used on dune buggies and sand rails.
