Simple as that I just need this… ![http://shift518.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3470&stc=1&d=1296851233](http://shift518.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3470&stc=1&d=1296851233) I know a few of you guys, Nick, JVG, Adam, Yetti, Brett… might have some connections. To be honest with you, it doesn’t need to be necessarily a VAG rear setup. Just a smallish compact IRS rear diff, crossmember and shit that will hold good power 500tq or so. yes, to the answer you already have in your head the moment you read the title. :ninja ---

that was an idea too. What would something like that resale for? from guys going solid rear I assume. Dont want to drop $2000 on that shit, when I could find the entire audi donor car for dirt cheap. ---

A lot of the newer ford SUVs have 8.8" IRS. explorer, mountaineer, ect. The rest of the suspension will have to be more sedan oriented tho. Older Eclipse GSX would be a good suspension as well. I would want to try and stay with the Audi VW parts tho if I was you. Are you going RWD or AWD. I would love to see a RWD slick and skinned Jetta ---

Ass end would be somewhat easy. most of those cradles are 4-8 bolt in deals, and some strut tower mounts. I just want something cheap and will hold power. without blowing to pieces when I launch it. how well do the dsm’s hold power back there. only thing I worry about is with a awd car, putting 100% power to the rear when prior it got 50-70% only… Is that cobra stuff Dave mentioned the same as an IRS exploder? ---

The dsm rear ends take quite a bit of abuse but if you are going for straight rwd they may offer more for the cobra rear ends as far as beefed up parts ---

The cobra setup looks stout as hell, and heavy too. but looks like cake to bolt up. The Vette C5 would be sweet, and they are all over too. They are light, almost everything is aluminum. but its a 4 link type thing. a little complicated to mock up under a unibody car like the jetta. BUT I have a guy who put the same rear into a hot rod and would be able to help. the Dana center is stoute too, all aluminum, and the bat wing that mounts the diff is cake to mount under the car too. aluminum cv’s are cool too. ---
