VW SPLITSCREEN STRAIGHT AXLE



Straight axle split kombi kit installed using original brakes and hand brake cables, non adjustable spring plates and can still get the wheels off without deflating or using two jacks ( still passes the 90mm rule in Queensland. personally I think it is the right height, any lower to me is ridiculous for a daily driver )
