rear suspension

[Stib]

Can anyone tell me what the difference is between mk1 golf/mk2 golf/rallye golf rear suspension?

Fitment that is…

If you mean the spring & shokker length/rate?

then the Syncro is heavier sprung & damped to cope with the extra weight & also the spring perch sits higher up the Syncro shokker to clear 15 inch wheels & tyres

Here is what happens when you run Golf 1 Rear Shokkers with 195/50-15 tyres

Mate thats brilliant thanks

Don’t consider buying anything other than standard length rear shokkers, as the “Lowered” ones are far to low & the tyres rub against the bodywork.
