    Not quite, almost there. Just a progress update

    Front bits are now done ... new aluminium sump, front diff (serviced too) and FR and FL driveshafts in. Sump clearance was probably the most complicated issue so far.

    All electrics from the donor is ready to go in with all required control units plus entire gearbox/transfer case/rear diff loom. Next major mechanical items are transfer case and rear driveshafts.

      Big Red is now driveable again as the TDI box does not have a 3rd gear synchro issue (still in 2WD but with all 4WD hardware fitted). Next up is the electronics.

          • How's the build coming along?

            Took a light '4wd only' track in the 2wd TSI Rok the other day, was happy with how it handled it but did make me think of your build and how 4WD and low range would be nice at times.
