Hey all, first post on the Classifieds. I'm looking for a pair of 1999 ABS Axles and a 1.8 diff cover to complete my 1.6 to 1.8 Torsen swap. My 1991 is the only one I've ever seen with ABS and I intend to retain it. I'm located in 33043, and shipping is definitely preferred. Thanks!

 

You can buy new single piece axles with abs rings for like $65 EA. I bought some from O'Reilly's. They do come with a funny sized axle nut, so be prepared

Have you checked to see if you can successfully remove your old axles yet?

 

I have the axle nuts from the donor car. Everything came from a wrecked '99. But it didn't have ABS. My 1991 is the only one ive ever seen with ABS. What do you mean by my old axles? The ones on the 91 or the ones from the donor car?

 

I have a 1.8 pumpkin in my part out thread, $100 + about maybe $30 for shipping?

 

Not trying to hijack or go off topic here to badly. Just a warning that both the axle nut, and the splined part of the axle common to the hub can get seized up so bad you might have a really hard time pulling the old ones that are currently on the car. It's worth checking to see if they'll come loose. If not, you may end up wanting a junk yard hub too.

 

I've actually gotten quite lucky! The whole reason for the swap is because my stock 1.6 open diff blew out under light acceleration from a stoplight. (It had a LOT of prior abuse though.) So as a temporary fix, I removed the diff and axles and welded it so that I could have the car back on the road same-day. I (very luckily as well.) Was GIVEN a 4.1 Torsen out of a wrecked '99. All it needs is a diff cover, or pumpkin, I guess the term is. Problem is the axles that came with the swap are non-ABS, and my '91 is an ABS car. Hence the post.

 

PM'd.
