86HatchShelby Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 EA-82 axles are longer than EA-81 axles, so you have to get them off an EA-81 car. -Jaren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edrach Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 EA-82 axles are longer than EA-81 axles, so you have to get them off an EA-81 car. -Jaren Also, turbo axles are different from non-turbo. You would likely be safe with any '82, '83 and '84 wagon; if there are any Brats or Hatches in the mix, you can go as late as 1987 for your axles. Check the write up in the USRM for hints and tips for changing the axle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bratman18 Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 You have an 83 GL which is the EA81 body style. The next newer body style which was made from 85-94 is known as EA82. The axles do not interchange. an axle from either side of another EA81 will work. Any from 82-89 with the same style body as yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bratman18 Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 They did start making that style in 1980 but most likely anything that old will be the older Gen 1 body style which is different. Good luck with your search! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bratman18 Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 ok now im confused again They made your style car in those years plus a few. Any axles from either side from a car that has the same body style as your car will fit in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomeverett13 Posted February 11, 2009 Author Share Posted February 11, 2009 here the interchange for my year 1982 - 1987 BRAT 1980 - 1982 GLF 1980 - 1984 DL 1980 - 1984 STANDARD 1980 - 1989 GL 1987 STANDARD 1987 - 1989 GL-10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bratman18 Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 Yup! That's all the years that fit, but just remember that they all have the same body style as your car!!! There are a couple different body styles that intersect with those years, so in order for the axle to fit your car, it has to be the same style.
