Junkyard charging me 50 a side knuckle, caliper and rotor. When it warms up Ima go pull them. Should I take the ebrake lines or just buy new?


I can sell you the whole swap. Lines, knuckles, hubs, rotors, calipers, wheels, tires, etc and show you how to do it. I did a couple different things with mine.

Sounds like you could make some decent money doing this. Considering how clueless I was when I stumbled on this thread, I would have jumped at the opportunity to get all the parts at once.

It's not that hard. Just time consuming.

I pretty much did the 5spd swap for another member. Literally, did the whole thing while doing mine. I won't be doing that again unless I'm getting paid. I really want another 6th gen, I just don't want to pay $5k+ for one.
