Sam's VW Baja build

Here's our video showing our 1973 VW Beetle getting converted to a Baja!

Excellent build! Love the way did the video by making the build the focus of the video! There were no humans in the video to take away from this entire build! Enjoyed watching your video!

[@Xtreme4x4Ctr]

Thank you!

[@Shed-To-Beach]

That utv bumper was made for it 👌

[@Bajahaha70]

Cool bug and awesome sound track!😊

[@challenger2071]

Well Done!

[@Aux1Dub]

That’s rad!!!

[@justinhanssen3375]

Which website did you use for the wheel adaptors? I've been struggling to find good ones

[@welcomeabbott3510]

How does it handle with the same large tire size all 4 corners? BTW looks awesome

[@mikeparker7243]

Hey did you have any rubbing issues with the front tires being 31s? I have 29s on the front of mine with a stock width beam and 0 offset wheels, 15x8, and I can't hardly turn to the right.

[@Bajahaha70]

Best Metallica video yet lol any updates?

[@Xtreme4x4Ctr]

Thx!

[@DeGallery]

hows the bearing holding on? my friends car needs a new bearing every month or so

[@ChristianPareATLAS]

🤟

[@jordanmiller8473]

How much does a build like this cost around?

[@fricksapiaries8646]

Hello! Sharp looking project sir. When lifting the car did you adjust the front beam and add the 3” spindles? Or just install the spindles? How many splines did you rotate in the rear? How does it ride now? How are the engine and transmission working with those large tires? Thanks

[@Xtreme4x4Ctr]

Thx! Just 3" front spindles, no beam adjust. On the back we went 1 spline. Car runs great and pulls the 31's very well

[@fricksapiaries8646]

Where were you able to find the raised spindles? Are they welded on spindles or cast? Thank you!

[@jhaltic]

Can I ask what utv bumper that is?

[@kwhitney6238]

Where did you get the tail lights

[@mikefalk2247]

Which gas shocks did you use...I currently have Empi coil-overs, which are terrible pogosticks...need to do better on this '73

[@Xtreme4x4Ctr]

I'm using Monroe Gas shocks. Ride is pretty good

[@mikefalk7240]

Thanks!

[@crosisofborg5524]

Gotta get a rear cage for the engine.

[@Xtreme4x4Ctr]

8 Baja's and never and never will! Thx

[@Shed-To-Beach]

Awesome bug! And wicked song. How did you get Metallica - One license? What royalty free music site did you use to avoid copyright? Teach me your ways 😂

[@theRustybuck3t]

what bolt pattern for the wheels? and what wheel spacer adapter did you fit?

[@Xtreme4x4Ctr]

wheels are 5 on 4.5" Wheels spacers are off internet

[@theRustybuck3t]

what size tires are you running? assuming all the same size?@@Xtreme4x4Ctr

[@Xtreme4x4Ctr]

they are 31x10.50r15 front and rear @@theRustybuck3t

[@fricksapiaries8646]

What’s the offset on those wheels?

[@Xtreme4x4Ctr]

They are 15x8 with 3.5" back space

[@fricksapiaries8646]

Is that for both front and rear wheels or just front? Do they rub?

[@johanjerkhag6654]

Really nice build- I think you should turn the front bumper upside-down. it would look nicer and it would not interfer with the headlights. Bug on!!!

[@johngross6525]

Z, you don’t know crap about music!!!

[@maxmillion4216]

The music was awful.

[@Xtreme4x4Ctr]

LOL

[@zoltore23]

Nice video, but calm down with that angry, unrelated music. It really ruined your video. No need for that music. You are trying too hard.

[@shanepowers7566]

No it didn’t.

[@stuartlpnwcc]

Love the music!

[@dadkeffer1229]

I stayed for the music.

[@LOYALSHEEPDOG10]

Shut your mouth!

[@fricksapiaries8646]

Perfect soundtrack!
