Have you tried Darkside developments? https://www.darksidedevelopments.co.uk/products/02a-transmission-differential-installation-kit.html

More Northern price https://www.darksidedevelopments.co.uk/products/02a-02j-differential-shim-kit.html

 

Thanks.
Back ordered with dealer now. 1 week to 2 months was the quote. 'none in uk'
I am after a little more help on a related issue now;

02J removing 5th gear synchro hub (argentinian made box)
Heat and an adapted mechanical puller has so far failed to shift it
They are normally tight, but this one is ridiculous..
See piccy
Anybody got any suggestions?

 

That kit of parts looks very useful from darkside, something I should stock for future use
Jon

 

Doing another 02J box now.
Looking to invest in another set of 3 leg pullers. Will a 5 tonne set pull 5th gear synchro hub off, or an 8 tonne?
Looking at MATRA, Sykes Pickavant, Sealey, Kukko
What have you bought guys?
Regards
Jon

 

Do not use ‘legged’ pullers in the drive gear, sure way to chip teeth. For the smaller driven I have a home made jobbie with thin legs.
Vw do the shims separately

 

Understood, agree. Tricky job though.. Made something, but its not pretty. Job now complete, ready to go into my A3
Thanks
Jon
