TDI starter for swing axle adapter ?

Post by panel »

Does anyone know if the adapters out there for sale will work on a swing axle ? They all seem to be for IRS transmissions.Looking to run the SR0408X/0409X starter. Or the 17305.

Should be same starter as long as the flywheel is 12v.

zero vehicles on jackstands, square gets a fresh 090 and 1911, cabby gets a blower.
EZ3.6 Vanagon after that.(mounted, needs everything finished) then Creamsicle.

westy ventures sells an adapter that works for the 002 bell housing. That will work with your swing axle trans.

That setup uses the manual trans Jetta starter (more common)
