Hi Tommy,
Why don’t you post a couple pictures of the suspention in the gallery. Let us know when they are there and we’ll take a look.
Re the year of the chassis…you will find the original VW VIN stamped into the center tunnel, at the rear of the passenger compartment, adjacent to the shift rod access panel (where it connects to the front of the transaxle) (under your seat).
Look up your VIN (Chassis Serial Number) in the chart below. I only included 1965 through 1974. The full chart for 1948 through 1979 is avaiable at http://www.papafernandez.com/ybdb/serno.html :
