Finally, Rosten has made 1.6TD H-beam rods!
« on: July 18, 2011, 04:18:30 am »
Finally, a trusted vendor supplies H-beam rods for our 1.6TD builds at a decent price!

If you're not familiar with Rosten-Performance, check out the TDIClub forums.



 - 136mm center - center
 - 24mm small end with bronze bushing
 - 50.6mm big end
 - 2 piece forged from 40CrNiMo steel
 - comes with ARP 2000 bolts and assembly instructions
 - shoot peened and heat treated
 - weight is 560 gram included bolts, with a tolerance of +- 1gram
 - Designed to use TDI rod bearings which are far better than the 1.6TD
 - Price complete set: 350.00 €

I'm in no way affiliated with this vendor, just giving you guys a heads up :)

I have been waiting for these to appear. Thanks for posting. Hopefully these won't just be a limited run item.
