Q2. yes WALK will fit, mine did  :wink:

Carrera2RS:
Great, just need to find  cheap place for parts.

Then me thinks it's time for some lighter bigger anchors  :evilgrin:

rex:
The TT arms are longer that the normal GTI ones.

About the TT hubs..
1. Do they fit on a mk5? I tired to figure that out but could not do so :( (the brakes will definitely fit, what about the steering rod?).
2. If they fit will we have to change the wheel bearing (or is it the same - just to let you know there are 2 different hubs and bearings on a mk5 depending on the model/year/engine....; so my guess is that we have to change them also)?

Could you guys post a image with the full TT hubs (I saw the one taken only for the arm pivot).

the bruce:
The bearings will fit from all what I know.  :wink:

The steering rod will cause the biggest problem as replacing them by the TT rods
might be difficult cos the TT has a different steering rack.
