We look at the rear suspension setup on a swing axle VW Beetle. Yes, time to do some more work on the Renault/VW Beetle project. And I break tradition by posting a video of the Renobug build on a Sunday! (at least here where I am) We learn how many splines there are on the torsion bars and how the spring plates fit. We also find out what the spring plate angle changes are per spline and then discover that it is possible to make changes to rear suspension of less than one degree!
