What makes the 96 glx have a wider front wheel track than a 96 tdi b4, is it the subframe or the lca's ? I have a bent glx subframe and a straight b4 subframe. Thanks.
The sub frames are the same. You don't need to swap the sub frame, you can just swap the control arms with ball joints, outer CV joints and tie rods and the bearing carriers (spindles).So I can just swap the subframe then ? That would solve the problem.
To my knowledge only the outer CV is different, the axles and inner CV's are the same between TDI and VR with MT. Even in the aftermarket rebuilders list lengths the same between the Plus and base suspension car axles.CV shafts are longer as well
The info I have written down from hunting around on this topic says the following:Hmm I always thought the shafts were longer. Either way, I'll be finding out again real soon. I do know the LCA are in fact longer from plus to base suspension.
