Oh and it's got a GTi swift mottor too, so it has a little extra power. I'm pretty sensible offroad though and we don't have alot of clean rock stuff up here.
Just get a spare rear diff centre and slip it into the front.

This will work, but you will need an oxy torch and a HUGE hammer
Cable bracing is the way of the future!

so in other words they dont actually fit? youve gotta pull the centre apart and literally swap the side gears?
And (without me being bothered checking the calmini website) they acutally sell the heavy duty axles seperate from the beef cv/axle combo for the front?
One more thing, Gwagensteve, I'd be really interested in seeing a tech/build thread on your dt front/vit hybrid (i think you said a while ago) custom rear diffs that you are building!!! (if youve started yet)
(although at that point in a build id be considering weighing up the cost vs. benefits of going some lux diffs & shaving them, but thats just me...)

Ok so how is it done properly then?
The corect way is,
Just get a spare rear diff centre and slip it into the front.
My apologies to Layto I just reread and noticed he was refering to the larger axles oops,
