Slow progress on locking rear diff

[gruppe_a]

Sharan syncro locking rear diff into Dutchbuild rear beam:

Takes a few minor mods & a different support bracket up front…

Is it possible to use 02c gearbox like (#02c 300 015 GX) from 4motion Golf IV/Bora/Jetta? As it has same ratio angle drive as Sharan/T4 rear diff 17/27.

[gruppe_a]

Sure, or just the angle drive on any 02C transmission. The angle drive I got is from an A3, FEX is the code I believe.

Whats the difference of Differentials for vehicles with ABS and differentials for vehicles without ABS? Nothing? freewheel mechanism?

[gruppe_a]

There shouldn’t be any difference. And the exact same vacuum unit bolts to the back as any Golf syncro rear diff uses, so no difference there either.

I think the Sharan/T4 syncro use a vacuum unit for the actual locker. I’m gonna use a mechanical lever for mine… somehow.
