first job:

change axle from a 106 to get four stud hubs. here is the 106:


luckaly my dad has his own garage with two ramps so i could get both cars up in the air to swap the axles.

first off was to get the back box off



then it was take of brake pipesand start undoing the bolts.
after a while the axle came out.





then it was axle out of the 106 (bad pik)





swap them around and start bolting together again.
four stud hubs now on the saxo:y:

the wheels that i will be using on the sax (will be painting white at a later date. bad pik (1900 pug 205 gti wheels)



so it was on with the wheels



now they were rubbing on the inside arch!
