The T arms may well be shorter than GTI's, but the TT arm + ball joint = longer than the GTI arm + ball joint

They are 6 to 12mm longer than GTI arms depending on adjustment  :happy2:

I have come to the same conclusion, i just haven't picked up the TT ball joints yet. But fact is the arms itself is shorter  :smiley:

Yes, this is the only way why the complete TT arm assembly is 'longer'.
