Title: MK3 output shaft size?
Post by: the caveman on May 23, 2011, 02:00:32 pm
Does anyone know what size the diff output shafts are on a 98 TDI ? I thought they were the smaller size, but Vag-cat lists them as 100mm, which would be perfect as  i have a GLX as a donor car to drop my TDI drive train into. That way i don't have to bother  about changing the flanges to match the drive  shafts.

yep trans should be 100mm but if your glx transplant recipient was a vr6 it would have been 108 iirc.

all 02a Transmissions are 100mm
on the 02J the 2L and TDI have 100mm and the Vr6 and 20V have 108mm

what is there to swap? If you have a mk3 tdi transmission (02A transmission family with a code of CTN) then you have 100mm which is the same size as the mk3 Vr6 (02a transmission family with a code of CCM) output flanges

Started the swap. They are indeed the same. Saves me a little work. Worse thing so far has been removing the throttle pedal.
