This guy does some nice mods and the videos cover a lot of the car dissected. Great intro montages.
Awesome ! Cool video . I'm going to check out the rest of the series.
Picked up a 03 jetta TDi for my next project and I'm going the lifted/ all terrain tire route with a trailer to replace my truck. I can't justify the truck prices these days. My golf with roof rack has been doing everything I need as far as hauling lumber , water heaters etc and she's lowered!
I'm going to be doing injector upgrades and a tune as well so It will be a little rally car in a sense ( especially with the wild Hella lightbar i picked up 🤣). Interior will be gutted behind the driver/ passenger seat for tool storage and my doggo .
Might do a build thread on here 🤙
Perfect, lifted jetta with a trailer is going to make having a truck seem silly. Take lots of pictures and post them up. I have a lifted jetta too. Not a tdi though. Do you have a plan on the lift?
Yeah, I don't want to give it away, but as the videos go on the story gets pretty funny. I was laughing pretty good.
Yeah when my truck went tits up ( 2007 tacoma 4cyl 4x4) I was devastated. Wanted to drive it forever but finding that 2trfe 4cyl was impossible, truck was mint, sold it for 5k cash to some clowns that were going to run it through an auction. They probably made a few k , it ran on 3 cylinders ...I should have kept it and did an ALH swap I had an ALH wagon ready to donate but wasn't thinking right at the time ☹️
Had a 00 golf that needed a lot of work and already had a votex rack for some reason. Couldn't stop working so I redid all the running gear , timing belt , every sensor etc and it picked up the slack. Made me think what the hell is the point of a truck in this day and age.
Picked up the 03 jetta for $700 , needs a clutch ,timing belt and a few other goodies I already have laying around ( started hoarding ALH parts like I do with every other VW I've had) . I've always been an oil pan scraping , coilovers as low as possible savage and thought 🤔 this one is going up and will be my truck !
I'm going to use the jeep springs and shock/ strut extensions for the travel. I'm thinking this will be best for the increase in load with the trailer.
How did you lift yours ?
- yeah the old guy seems like a character . He was happy about the loose change ...I would be too
