Where can I get these??

Post by jr_vw2 »

I am going to put a super diff and new side plates on my IRS trans. Where can I get the plugs that cover the circlips in the center of the axles? I know CB Performance has a gasket set but I dont know if they come in the set. Image

Any VW parts house should have CV flange caps. CB most likely has them. Weddle Industries has them. I stop using them on anything that goes off road because the aftermarket axles float in the CVs and hit the flange caps causing them to leak. I make sure the area around the snap ring is clean and fill in the area between the side gear splines and edge of flange (where seal sets) with silicone. I have tried using the urethane one and they broke apart from the axles hitting them.
