TransporterHaus VW Bay Dropped Spindles update

Now in their 3rd year of production TransporterHaus VW Bay dropped spindles have proved to be a great success for owners wishing to lower their van.

TransporterHaus now has over 500 units in use worldwide, more than any other producer of bay window dropped spindles.  So you can rest assured you are getting a high quality lowering product that is tried and tested.

Our dropped spindles have always come with 1 year guarantee against defect.  Now our European competitors are feeling the pressure we will step up another gear and warrant the ball joints for 12 months against premature wear.
