hi there,
i am currently in the middle of convereting a 79 mk1 golf to a syncro with a haldex set up, which is more or less using the same parts as a mk2 syncro.
i will be using an early type golf rallye gear box, and just wanted to confirm that the transfer box that i wlll need is from a skoda octavia vrs, and the diff from an audi tt or s3.
regards

Not sure if you find it on Skoda Octavia vrs, but I’ve seen it on Octavia Tdi 4×4.

You can go with stock items.
hi i have an 02a box with a 6 spd quaife gear set and peloquin diff in my syncro can i fit a skoda angle drive to it 02c 409 053m when i convert the rear to haldex ? cheers
If if it is an 02A then no, as 02A is 2WD, do you mean an 02C?
hi yes 02c it has a rallye angle drive on it at the moment does this mean it will fit ? cheers
As far as I am aware it will fit, hopefully nutter will confirm this
