Subject:      Limited slip for 2wd trans?
Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII


Is there such a thing as a limited slip upgrade for a 2WD vanagon trans?


I recall seeing an article in Euro Car about a stiffer "thrust washer" or
something like that, which provides more limited slip capabilty in Golf/Jetta
transaxles, so I was wondering...


It is really quite pathetic how bad the traction is on a 2wd and uneven terrain,
so I was hoping maybe some improvement could be built into my impending
trans repair.
