Hi Jason, I use a 0.73 ratio 5th gear from Weddle on my 86 vanagon 094 transaxle and it works fine. I have a tdi ahu converted to a tdi afn. I have 20k miles on it and am happy. If you are staying with the same size tires you might want to go to the 0.70 ratio. I rarely need to down shift on the highway. Midwesty |
