i'm trying to put an r180 diff from a 98ra (no abs) into my my00 which has abs. Now what i think i need are rear "knuckles" out of an 02-04 sti. Can anyone clarify exactly what i need to get this sorted? And can anyone supply the parts i need. Jws and swans are a non event. Thanks

pretty sure its knuckles and drive shafts

What you need are the GDB (02+ STI) R180 rear hubs. The ABS tone ring is on the hub itself. But in order to use the R180 diff you will also need R180 shafts.

When the Japlish Google translation software says "knuckles" they are referring to the CV Joint/Shafts.

To clarify... What parts do you already have for your R180 conversion? So we know what you will need.

I think you will find that...

by "knuckles", they usually mean hubs.

I Guess it depends on who you buy it from then. Ive seen plenty of them use the term knuckles to refer to the CV Shafts.

i've got a whole wheel to wheel setup to drop in. Hubs, brakes shafts and centres. Are gd and gc shafts the same?

gd are longer, but if you have the GD lateral arms, no problems

I had GD R180 rear chafts with GC lateral arms and there was no problem. The ABS gear can be fitted onto older hubs as RMS did this exact thing to my car about a year ago. (I used R180 hubs from a 99 RA)
