EMPI 17-2799-0 Chromoly 5/8" Diameter VW King And Link Pin Front Axle Beam Link Pins 5/8"-18 Thread

These pins connect your front spindles to your front trailing arms. In the offroad industry we call these 5/8" pins, but they're actually 17.9mm almost 18mm in diameter, the same as a pre 1965 Volkswagen. 5/8" is actually referring to the thread on the end which is 5/8"-18. EMPI includes standard nyloc nuts with their pins. We do sell thin jam nuts and nyloc jam nuts if you want to double them up.

These pins will NOT work with stock VW arms. Aftermarket arms made by EMPI, Foddrill Motorsports, Jakes Fabworks, Latest Concepts, Latest Rage, Pacific Customs Unlimited, Pacific Race Components, T.I. Designs, Tweed Innovations and Woods Off Road have a wider 1-7/8" up to 2" boss that the pin goes through compared to an OEM arm.

Stock VW front trailing arms would use the 111-498-051-A link pin set.
