Looking at a possible dune buggy swap.
I know, I'm looking for the longitudinal info but I had only been able to find the transverse ratio sheets. It probably didn't help that I didn't know the correct gearbox codes for what I wad looking for to help narrow my search lol. Looks like Caffeine got me covered though!
Cool, thank you! That covers the 6 speed boxes for me. Would you happen to know the 5 speed gearbox codes so I can use that to search those out as well.
012 for FWD, 01A for AWD 5-speed, there's also 01E 6-speeds (pre-dates the 02X, used for both FWD and AWD boxes), and 0A3 6-speeds (used on more powerful engines than the 02X).
Thanks again, big help. Found a couple 012 options with the gearing that I’m looking for. Ideally, I’d like for a similar spread, rev range, and drive feel to the EUH in my Jetta. I had to do some math on it since the tires on the back end of my buggy are 33x12.5x15, so a good deal larger than the 25 inch factory tires lol. I used Interco tire’s final drive calculator and to match the current 3.38 in the EUH, I’d need a 4.45 final drive with the 33s. I found codes CCG, CHH, CGU, DCN, DWG, and DHE with 4.56 final gears, and boxes CGS and CMS with 4.88s. My (hopefully) last questions: does anyone know of a breakdown by market/model for these boxes? All of the B5 Passat boxes I’ve found listed online so far have been code EZG which is a 3.7 final and a bit long for what I want to do. Any good online shops to order decent used boxes from by code?
