The TRW rack has a smooth surface center tube,
while the ZF rack has raised cross rib stiffening,
a look on ebay will show the differences.May I say to togran & ahusyncro, that we are an English language website & while we have members that have a different mother language that we expect all posts to be in English!
please its not rocket science! [
]Google translations for these last 2 posts are [}
]there is no separate allocation for filling coffers, it takes oil from the gearbox, rear axle shall have refills Inga on the left side just above the drain plug.
ahussyncr. you have like half right
some of the early editions actually own filling for allocation checkout
Yes, these are the correct rear drums for the Golf Syncro
When did you last change the brake fluid/bleed the brakes?
as if there is any air in the system it can cause all sorts of weird & wonderful things to happen. [}
]do you know which master cylinder or ABS system you have?
A photo of the M/C might help if you are not sure.
Thats the correct bosal number, the VW part nr is 191 253 209C, the IMASAF part number is 72.50.03
Here is a brand new one on eBay.co.uk [
]ASU code gearbox is from a Rallye & was made in 2 versions, early type without oilways, & the later type with oilways.
Your full gearbox code indicates you have have early type box which does NOT have the 2 oilway feeds into the transfer box (see photo)
btw all Rallye transfer box casings were made out of cast iron, rather than cast ally of the Passat transfer box
Early type (without oilways suitable for your gearbox) on the right.
1. Subframes – use the country subframe & engine mountings
2. Upgrade the clutch – the O2C Rallye box uses a 228mm clutch you will need a suitable flywheel
3. Rod shift to Cable conversion – Easy as the cable change lever box uses the same mountings as the rod change
4.LHD to RHD issues – the MK 2 LHD ABS master cylinder will not fit in a RHD car as the engine is in the way
5. Matching running gear and codes ratio’s etc? – both the Rallye & Passat items you have are compatable as is the original rear diff 20/21 ratios
6. ABS – Will the mk3 stuff fit or not bother? – I dont know for sure, but if its off a RHD car then it may well fit, please let us know if it does or doesn’t
7. Gearbox mounting brackets – engine mounts etc? – see above
8. Wich drive shafts and prop shafts etc. prop shaft is ok you need a pair of Rallye front shafts
9. rear disc conversion from drums – you really should read this http://www.vwsyncro.co.uk/data/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=119
10. power steering – should swap over without problems
11. what wiring to remove and swap etc. ECU? you need the ECU & harness from the engine you are fitting
