Pro Comp pro street swing axle 3:88 gear. The axles and rear end was shortened 1 1/2" to get the genuine Porsche 16x8 to fit.

This VW seems to be engineered for a very specific purpose. Is it a road car or a track car? And are you still sporting genuine swing axles?

It's a pure road car. Still has swing axles and trans. Just narrowed 11/2" on each side to fit the genuine Porsche Fuch 16x8.

Awesome.. I like that you set your rears correct. I have 16by8 so my bus has flared fenders. That will bunch panties. What general area are you from? Your bus looks perfect.
