Change one of the numbers to 0 and then update quantities

Check your rear shocks. On the fender, push with your body going down. Upon releasing, your car should go up and down one time then settle. If it goes beyond or hesitate to move, you have a problem with your shocks. I think you also have a problem with the shock absorber bush. It does not matter if you have a new or old shock absorber. The lifespan of the shocks depends on the way you drive on bumpy roads.

I don't think it will. I have a 2002 FXDWG and 1 inch shorter than stock shocks and plenty of clearance.

Progressive is a good brand. Here's a link to a page with a number of good quality shocks on it.

the job of replacing the shocks is not difficult. Just do one shock at the time.

Good Luck

1967 VW beetles had a type of trailing arm suspension, which gave some amount of independence between the two sides. The axle tube, with brake plate and bearings, coming from the transaxle, attached to the trailing arm suspension. The only part that normally had to be replaced in the rear suspension were the shock absorbers. In 1967 they were NOT Macpherson struts, so they are just bolted on and easy to change.

the rear shock is adjustable, the ring below the spring turns and locks onto a kind of peg on the body of the shock. being that your bike is an 86 it may even be time for new shocks or an upgrade to stiffer. if you do adjust then make sure both sides are on the same setting. as far as tools needed some shocks can be done by hand with help from someone lifting the weight up on the back end. i dont know what kind of tools as i cant find a good pic online of your bike but maybe a C spanner / wrench
