    My '03 1.8T 5M, w/Giac 1.3 bar ECU since ~40k, now has 180k. No barney blood. No excessive engine vibration at idle, but its not like new either. Shifts are a bit clunky and hard to make smoothly (which I was convinced was DMF failure since that's original also), especially in low gears. I...

    So both joints in my passenger side half axle are going out. Having read the many cv replacement guides here, I'm trying to get a raxle replacement.

    The original, unmolested (and never installed) Shine Racing SRS rear torsion bar stiffener I modeled the now fabled run of SnunkBars after. Personally — and I am naturally biased — the SnunkBar is a better get, but they are all gone. So I offer this gen-u-wine SRS rear sway with mounting...
