G_Drive_Ball_VR6
This part replaces the white plastic part that attaches to the actuator arm shown with the red arrow in the picture below. The OEM part is made from injection molded nylon and becomes very brittle in the engine heat. Of course VW/Audi will not sell you *JUST* this part, you would have to buy a whole new drive unit for big bucks and get a bunch of stuff you dont need.
GruvenParts.com builds these the way VW should have: from a solid chunk of 6061-T651 aircraft grade aluminum on a 4 axis HAAS mill-lathe. Utilizing some tricks within the SolidWorks/MasterCam CNC software, we have tweaked the process to allow the billet part to be machined specially to accept the locking feature on the end of the intake rod. Just push fit this part onto the end of the intake rod similar to OEM plastic part fitment. There are no set screws to come loose and the fit is perfect.
This part makes a great upgrade when installing our upgraded Tite-Loc Intake Manifold Bushings.
Our part will also cost you about 1/3 what VW/Audi charge for their plastic drive unit (and the OEM plastic part is NOT part of their repair kit). This one is a no brainer!
You guys asked us for it and we listened. Another great billet replacement part to rid your VW/Audi of the weak plastic parts! Click here for DIY instructions.
