VW Beetle Weld-In Jack Outlet — Floor Pan Support, Left or Right (111701475A)
Restore the structural integrity and original functionality of your vintage Beetle with this high-quality weld-in jack outlet. Over decades of use, original jack points are notorious for collecting moisture, leading to rust and dangerous thinning of the metal. This heavy-duty replacement is designed to be welded directly onto the floor pan, providing a safe and secure lifting point for your vehicle. It is cut and formed in-house at Washburn's Metal in Orange, California — a shop-built part, not a catalog reprint.
Precision-engineered to match factory specifications, this outlet fits all non-convertible Beetle models. Whether you're performing a full body-off restoration or a localized floor pan repair, it ensures your jack stays where it belongs during maintenance.
Why Choose Washburn's Metal?
Produced by Washburn's Metal to match factory specifications, this jack outlet is built from thick-gauge steel for professional weld-in installation — a dependable choice for restorers who need a safe, correct lifting point.
