Steering dampers for aircooled Volkswagens is pretty important, VW didn’t mount them themselves not for nothing since 1960 on all of their models.
Without going to far in technical details, the need for a steering damper in a Volkswagen has everything to see with the weight balance off course, engine and transmission in the back the engine even behind the front axle means the car will be always get a “front lift” effect when engine is on power…
The type 3 models aren’t any different as the rest of the VW crowd, but the model of steering damper is not exactly the same. Off course being a somewhat more rare car the manufacturers are not to keen to produce these steering dampers all the time and mainly do a run every two or three years… or less, but now they’re back… and we hope we have enough in stock till next production run.
Also all other steering dampers are available at very competitive prices
