Ep. 9 - MK1 Rabbit VR6 swap axles installed from S&P Automotive | Cali MK1 Part 9

In this episode I get the axles installed from S&P Automotive! I cover pretty much everything you need to know about installing them, including your options for modifying them to work. You'll either need to grind the lip on the backside of the hub if you're using MK1 hubs, upgrade to later model Cabriolet hubs, or install spacers from Tech-53. The spacers don't work with all axles available, so I had to modify mine slightly, but this was definitely the path of least resistance. If you're using an 02J transmission, you'll need to swap the 108mm axle cups for 100mm axle cups.

This is gonna be awesome 👍🏻 I need one of those front bumpers for my caddy that I’ve converted to early westy front end and added sportruck decals. I need to start trawling American eBay 😁

Where are you located? I'll be putting Euro bumpers on it soon so these will be for sale

@@wobjobs I’m in Yorkshire (uk) so it will probably be very expensive to ship

@@bealzibub4002 yeah for sure. If you want to pay shipping we could work out a deal

[@bealzibub4002]

@@wobjobs if you could get me a price together I can see if it makes sense 👍🏻 I only really need the front as it’s going on a caddy but understand if you want to sell as a pair.
