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.

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". :rolleyes:

Cheers, Greg

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.
