Non ABS VTR + VTS are not exactly the same. VTS has splines on the hub for ABS to work. If you fit a Non ABS VTR axle to your VTS, your ABS will not work.
Do one of three things
1) Find a replacement ABS rear axle and fit it (VTS or GTI will be fine)
2) Take your axle off and send it to IMAxles
3) I can give you the name and number of a top old bloke on Westbury trading estate that will replace the bearings in the axle for you (and replace stub pins if they are badly pitted) while you wait. You take it up to him and pay less than IMAxles charge and you get no hassle of taking the beam off or messing around with brake lines etc. He will also lower or raise it to your desired height. I had my VTS done there last year.
