VW Beetle | Rear spring plate, Left/right (swing axles) | 111 511 205B

The rear spring plate bears the full weight of the car and must withstand considerable forces. This part (OEM 111 511 205B) is mounted under the engine and connects the swing axles to the chassis, so wear here will immediately affect handling. Original plates are usually warped or cracked after decades, so replacement is not a luxury. Combine this with new swing axles and control arm bushings for a completely restored rear end.
