VW Diesel Spitfire Part 4 - Differential Swap and Driveshaft 

I'm sorry you had such a bad day! You are doing a great job!

Yep, I feel for you man. It's a real ball ache making parts and finding they won't fit n have to start again.

you were exactly right about those transverse rear springs ,they are terrible you better hope you never have to do any correction, avoidance maneuver ever cause it will kill you dam near did to me, and i am positve with all the torque available from the diesel it will be even more dangerous with all the great mods you have done so far it would not be hard to design out that deadly tuck in please consider it you have done such a good job so far

What was the inspiration for the gold color?

Are those 1330 ujoints?

Just picked one up what's the best budget option for a rearend upgrade or should I rebuild the stock diff? I got a Ford 8' rear for free considering cutting the frame and making a rear subframe instead
