They are all IRS. You mean double-joint rear and swing-axle rear.

Why confuse things? Everyone knows people are refering to double joint when they say IRS, even though you may be technically correct.Phil74Camper wrote:They are all IRS. You mean double-joint rear and swing-axle rear.

No they don't, that's the whole point.
There are newbies on here all the time who are unfamiliar with the 'in' VW terms. It's calling double-joint 'IRS' that is confusing things, not the other way around. Volkswagen didn't use the term, so neither should we.
Forget IRS. Swing axle or double joint - how hard is that?

You may as well give up, Phil. It's a case of "Don't confuse me with facts, my mind is made up". 🙄

Give Nick at Volksparts a call and he'll help you any way he can. You can buy anything from shells to complete cars, it all depends on what he has at the time. I bought my current daily driver from him as a shell and built it up there as a registerable car. He is busy but will accomodate you where he can, get an idea of what you want and call him.
