    The garage installing a quaife diff into my 020 box have informed me the crown wheel and pinion (18,66) have some chipped teeth so im after a replacement.

    Does any one have one or know where I can get one? Ive emailed brokevw and Im waiting for a reply, any other ideas?

    Cheers[:s]

    Im waiting for a call from the garage regarding the code. But the ratio is 3.67 and I think thats why its been tricky to find one.

    3.67 is std fit on loads of boxes, mk2 8v gti for one thing so pretty common

    Yep I agree pretty common then! Not sure why they cant source one, after all they are manual trans specialists. box code is ACD

    Make sure when you get one it matches the Quaife. The crown wheels come in 2 sizes, 109mm and 111mm. So 1 wil fit and the other won't depending on what you have.

    Ta, for the tips. Looks like brokevw can ship me over me a matching r&p set:thumbup:,top guy! Just gotta confirm some details. Should save me sourcing and stipping another box only to find more chipped teeth!
