raising frame head?

[vujade]

any one raise the frame head of their type 1 standard beetle to lower the front end?
Ive seen this done many times in the mags bud never seen the tech behind it.

Is it worth the effort?

It seems like if used in conjuction with dropped spindles you could get about a 4 inch drop without changing stock ride, then throw in an adjustable beam to dial in the drop exactly.

What do you think?
