PD130 02M Hub Conversion Help?

Post by Chris6969 »

Quick question if anyone can help :)

I'm doing a pd130 conversion using a Fabia as a complete donor. I want to use the 02M 6 speed Gearbox instead of buying a mk3 5 speed box, but I believe it uses 108mm driveshafts. Which either means custom made shafts or somehow use the hubs. Does anyone know if the fabia hubs can be fabricated to fit with the original wishbones? I will be using a pedal box to allow for hydraulic clutch.

couldnt you change the flanges that are on the gearbox?
on my o2o box i have changed 90mm to 100mm no problem.
i have never looked at newer gearboxes for comparison but i would have thought a m3 box and fabia box to be similer?


I dont mind project cars but I HATE SANDING!!!
