QUOTE(ArtechnikA @ Jul 23 2004, 12:05 PM) this one's easy - you "just" get a pair of early VW bus gear-reduction hubs, and drive them backwards :-) ... Woah, never heard of those.. Some sort of planetary gearboxes that go on the output shafts I suppose? My MGB has an overdrive unit on the end of the trans.. I'd pretty much considered something like that as pretty much impossible for a 914 as they aren't light or small, and you'd need two... |

Guys, keep it simple. Just run bigger tires. Much, much bigger! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I will probably end up with a trans form a passat or audi they have gears to close what I need and will bolt up with out an adaptor. |
