I'm not sure if this would be a consistent measurement from car to car. My arms have been rebuilt and I can't get them to an alignment shop. I need to make sure my axles have the correct lengths. Because of the Boxster design, they are unequal.
1. I need measurement between the inner faces of the arms. 2. What is the longitudinal tolerance of Constant Velocity joints? This will determine if I need to have the axle(s) modified. |

Felix, I'm in the process of the same type of install.
Mine is a 1.8t, that I'm upgrading from the 901 to a Passat trans. I found a 1000 mile trans on e-bay, and bought it for $285.00 ! I'm getting the trans back any day now from getting the Quaiffe installed. I'm interested in your axle development as my need will be similar to yours. I could measure my trailing arms/hubs, but they are at full droop and may not be acurate enough. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) Kevin |
