Thanks all. Unfortunately back at work next week and the continued waiting for parts will slow the job

Over the last few days I’ve fit the lower arms with Super Pro adjustable and the Powerflex anti lift kit, new genuine VW track rod ends, got the underside all cleaned off and Dinitrol applied and ran the new wires to the fuel pump connector.

[mention]Lister79 [/mention] looking very smart mate top work as always . Quick question might be daft lol is the anti lift kit to help keep the front wheels down and stop them skipping when pulling away fast?

Thanks both.

[mention]Azz03 [/mention] yeah they help improve grip mate. Embarrassingly as my van doesn’t/won’t get driven hard it’s unlikely that I’ll ever see the benefit to be honest, I just wanted the alloy subframe and these finish it off while also keeping everything tight.

[mention]Lister79 [/mention] thought so I’m still a bit green to all this performance part malarkey haha and it’ seems every time you post something new it then gets added to my mod list I’d seen the anti lift kit on other people’s vans and always wondered what it was for. Am I right in saying you can use the alloy a3 subframe then Passat b6 lower arms all as a combo?

I got the subframe from an EOS and Passat lower arm.

I believe they are the same from an A3, Eos or MK5 Golf just I’ve found they are a lot cheaper to buy when removed from an Eos for some reason.
