Product Details

The IAP 211513031RBR is a direct-replacement rear shock absorber engineered for the Volkswagen Type 2 Late Bay Window Bus. Referencing OEM part number 211-513-031, this unit restores factory-correct damping performance to the rear suspension of the iconic air-cooled Bus platform.

Over time, original factory shocks lose their hydraulic damping efficiency, resulting in excessive body roll, nose-dive under braking, and reduced stability — especially problematic for Transporters carrying heavy loads or fully outfitted Westfalia camper configurations. This IAP replacement unit is purpose-built to address these issues with a bolt-on fitment that requires no modification.

Key Features:

  • Direct bolt-on replacement for OEM part number 211-513-031
  • Designed specifically for the Late Bay Window chassis
  • Durable internal valving and high-grade seals for long service life
  • Hydraulic damping maintains consistent tire-to-pavement contact
  • Improves braking efficiency and tire longevity
  • Sold individually

The IAP 211513031RBR is an ideal solution for restoring ride quality and handling stability to vintage Volkswagen Type 2 Bus models. Compatible with both daily drivers and restored classics, this shock absorber is a straightforward upgrade for any home garage or professional shop.

Quick

Received my package today. Shipping was fast and it was about the best price I could find for my Cam. I'll buy from them again.

This is the first time I've ordered from this site, but things look good from what I can tell so far. They had the parts I was looking for (including a fairly specialized racing part) for a price slightly lower than other places I had looked, and my order shipped the next business day. At the time I wrote this, they were also offering $5 back on my order for writing a review. ;-)

so far good

Fast and easy

Needed a pair of brake pads all the way around for my car, Autoplicity had the exact parts in stock and also the best price. Shipped same day. Very Pleased. Order # 19227
