The return of the 914 Flat Tow Bracket! NEW!, * Featured Product * Options

[914werke]

I'm in the process of manufacturing a new version of the very popular & now defunct Flat Tow Brkt.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/flag.gif)
I'm updating it and will make it available, alone, or as part of a tow kit. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Made specifically for the 914. They are now heavy duty steel angle cross bar design rather than flat bar. This provides this version a couple key advantages IMHO:

1st. Strength. An angle is inherently more ridged that a flat piece of the same dimension.
2nd. Geometry. The new x-bar also allows the pin lynch points to be about 1" lower then before (while actually improving its strength).
3rd. Convenience. One of the few complaints I had with the original version was the need to carry its associated hardware independent of the bracket. Now it has mount points to carry the included bolts & spacers.
4th. Features. Offered before only as an add on for additional cost, this version also includes boss'es for safety chains

As I described above, when mounted, due to its tight proximity to the tub, the original location of the pin lynch points was a bit of a challenge because you HAD to remove your front spoiler or risk damaging it when towing.
With my new design if you run one of the various "LE" style FG spoilers, this should no longer be a concern (with properly setup hitch & tow bar geometry!).

*If you still run the OE steel valance it will still be necessary to remove before use.

You can still use either the Beetle or V style adj. tow bar, though the first offered will be for the V style or with my "kit".

The fist batch is limited # of units. I am offering them at the GROUP BUY rate of $100.00 + ship. Once those are sold the standard rate will be $159.00 +ship for the universal bar/bracket.

They are a quality product, that has been fully tested on my own cars. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/first.gif)


I owned the original bar since 2006 & cant count the # of times I've used it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)
