    great thread people, this is what we're supposed to be about!

    between mollins and I (both of us with 90mm inners) we have gone through 5 inners and 4 outers in 18 months.

    i love the idea of using transporter outers - are there any size issues with the uprights etc?

    Mk3 GTI, VR6 and T4 Outers are all the same.

    You will be alright Charles as you are using Mk1 Shafts.

    The guy in the Tex thread was using Mk2 Shafts in a Mk1 which will bugger it as they are 5 or 10mm too long.

    The same thing happens if you use Mk1 shafts in a mk2.

    With regards the Mk3, the VR6 Outers are bigger than the 2L and 1.8, but they swop over ok.

    You just use whichever shaft suits your suspension width, standard or plus suspension.

    Good thread this, lets have more info on here.
