Hi

Ive got onto the task of setting up the gear linkages on the tu gearbox in my gti.

What needs to be done to get a tu gearbox to work in a gti.

thanks

You'll need to cut off and re-weld the post on the subframe to the TU/MA position and use TU/MA rods, which are different to the XU ones. With both in front of you it all becomes clear!

Swordfish did it to his old subframe and some one else did with their XS with a ?MI16? He may have a photo knocking about somewhere?

Is the gear stick the same?

 

And all 3 gear rods are xu or tu specific?

 

What about the L shape pivoting part with the male balljoints?
