I've got a DTurbo for a run around and I need to change the rear beamexsisting rear beam-drums(non ABS) with a brake compensator thinking of upgrading to a GTi6 rear beam(complete with-discs,ABS, brake compensator and handbrake cables)ready to bolt on Is it a straight swop? Fit rear beam connect up exsisting brake pipes to brake compensator Will it be O.K without connecting the ABS |

I did this on my old dturbo years ago put a complete gti axle on it however mine didn't have a compensator on as standard so couldn't be arsed plumbing in the gti one properly lol. Everything is a straight swap over obv you need gti handbrake cables etc. if you don't plumb in the compensator be prepared for the rear to try to overtake he front in the wet under hard braking. Easily counter steered if your expecting it  . However not advisable lol. And yeh just cut the sensor wires off if there not needed .________________________________________ Black power baby!
