Click on the picture to visit our product page for up to date pricing info.

CHOOSE POLY-BUSHINGS OR SPHERICAL ROD ENDS !!

Got a lowered TT or R32 ? Then you already know how the camber and toe become completely out of sorts, causing poor handling and expensive tire wear the more its lowered.

The GruvenParts adjustable control arms allow for complete rear wheel alignment and feature the following :

Choose from a zero deflection high radial load PTFE lined inboard spherical joint with protective dust boots preinstalled over specially machined bushings. The fit of the boot over the spherical joint and bushings is nearly water tight!

OR

A poly bushing inboard end made from heat treated 4340 forged chromoly housing, thread in grease fitting, zinc plated steel protective sleeves, and race grade greaseable black polyurethane bushings from Energy Suspension.

You decide which set up you want ! The zero deflection spherical joints are suited for serious track abuse while the poly bushing ends are better suited for daily drivers.

All GruvenParts control arms feature the following :

Super strong, heat treated 4340 aircraft grade chromoly rod and ¼” thick U-Joints with machined, internally lubricated (molybdenum disulfide) threads. No weak aluminum is used for these parts (aluminum threads wont hold up).

Distinct proper wrench adjustment flats machined into the bars which allow for 2” of length adjustment while on the car. There is no knurled hand adjustment nonsense here, ours are simple to adjust.

Thick, durable powder coat finish (and zinc plating on the poly bushing ends) in your choice of high gloss black or Bilstein jazz blue.

Made right here in Atlanta, Georgia by our FAA approved commercial aviation machine shop working on state of the art CNC mills and lathes. You wont find many shops working at our level, and you wont find higher quality anywhere !

We know the economy is tough right now, so we are offering these at prices well under our competition. Buy 2 sets and save !!!

This product fits Audi TT (2001-2006), Audi A3/S3, VW R32 (2004), VW Golf 4motion and 4motion Variant, VW Bora 4motion and 4motion Variant and replaces P/N 1J0-505-323L (1J0505323L) and 1J0-505-323N (1J0505323N).

GruvenParts Billet R32/TT Adjustable Front Swaybar Endlinks !

GruvenParts.com is happy to release these Billet Front Adjustable Swaybar End Link sets for the Audi TT MK1 and VW MK4 R32.

We start with a center body made from 6061-T651 aircraft grade Aluminum hex to replace the flimsy non-adjustable OEM spaghetti links. We then add super strong 6,000 lbs radial load capacity sealed ball joints on either end to provide many years of noise free operation. Our ball joints have a built in dust boots to seal out the elements and do not require any maintenance. If they ever do need to be replaced, they can bought seperately on our site. These linkages will not deflect under the hardest track corners and will provide the most accurate handling.

All center sections are powder coated with a thick layer of either Gloss Black or Bilstein Jazz Blue - please choose during check out.
Our design allows simple and quick adjustment on the car. Simply loosen the jam nuts at either end and spin the center body portion to lengthen or shorten, then retighten the jam nuts.

This adjustable design will provide +/- 1 inch of adjustment on the car, which is enough to handle all lowered (or raised) set ups. You want the stabilizer bar end links to be as vertical as possible, perpendicular to the swaybar itself to avoid any loading in the fwd/aft direction.

Applications :
This product comes as a set of 2 endlinks and replaces OEM P/N's 1J0-411-315D (1J0411315D) and 1J0-411-316D (1J0411316D) found on the following vehicles and possibly other makes, please verify your OEM part numbers match these listed :

[b]1999-2006 Audi TT MK1 (all)
2004 VW R32 (all)




GruvenParts Billet R32/TT Adjustable Rear Swaybar Endlinks !

Got a lowered TT MK1 or R32 MKIV ? Then you need to be able to adjust your rear stabilizer bar end links to ensure the linkages ride perpendicular to the sway bar and correct the less than ideal handling typical of lowered set ups. The factory set up does not provide any adjustability in the sway bar end links but GruvenParts.com has you covered!

We’re proud to release these adjustable rear stabilizer bar end links with FORGED high strength steel lower bushing ends with rolled (not cut!) threads, and high strength fully sealed upper tie rod ends. The center bodies are custom machined from STAINLESS hex in house and then powder coated beautiful gloss black or Bilstein jazz blue to match our Adjustable Rear Control Arms and our Adjustable Front Sway Bar End Links.

These come ready to install and are pre-greased with special polyurethane grease and include a new lock nut on the top joint. Please re-use your existing lower OEM bolt when installing these adjustable units.

These are sold in sets of 2, enough for 1 vehicle.

This product fits Audi TT (2001-2006), Audi A3/S3, VW MKIV R32 (2004), Golf 4motion and 4motion Variant, VW Bora 4motion and 4motion Variant and replaces OEM linkage P/N 1J0505466B.

Billet VW/Audi 24V 2.8/3.2/3.6L Oil Filter Housing Caps !

Modular Billet Aluminum Oil Filter Housings For VW And Audi 24V 2.8/3.2/3.6L Engines !

This product is intended to replace VW/Audi Part Number 071-115-433 (071115433). Please check the OEM part number of your oil filter housing cap before ordering. You can do this easily by calling your dealer and giving them your VIN # and asking them to tell you the part number for your oil filter housing cap.

Just like our best selling billet MK2/MK3/MK4 VR6 and 4.2L V8 oil filter housing caps -- This one was worth the wait ! Never, but NEVER break a flimsy plastic oil filter housing again. Or deal with the unsightly leaks created by the cheaply made (yet expensive) plastic OEM housing cracking and deflecting. We made this one the way VW and Audi should have – from A SOLID BLOCK OF ALUMINUM, by God!

First, we start with a massive solid chunk of Aircraft Grade 6061-T6511 Aluminum. The section is delicately placed on one of our special CNC machining centers and precision cut to EXACTLY match the OEM plastic housing. The metal gods (well, in this case, one of our highly talented CNC programmers) has programmed elaborate steps for the very time consuming and expensive operation of profiling the special buttress threads into the housing using the exact DIN spec thread cutting tool required for a perfect seal.

This part comes with 2 threaded holes (M10x1) with steel drain plugs installed in both as shown in the pictures. You can therefore choose to install a VDO pressure sender in the center hole (VDO P/N 360 015) and/or a VDO temperature sender in either the outboard threaded hole or center threaded hole (VDO P/N 323 423). Please note the pressure sender will only fit in the center hole due to its size. Either hole can be retained as a drain. Please note the temperature and pressure senders are not included, you can source those from many retailers (such as Summit Racing). This DOES include the 2 steel drain plugs.

This product is intended to replace VW/Audi Part Numbers 071-115-433 (071115433) or equivalent. Please check the OEM part number of your oil filter housing cap before ordering. You can do this easily by calling your dealer and giving them your VIN #.

Special Note At The End :
You will need to carefully remove the sping bypass valve located at the base of your OEM plastic oil filter cap and install it into this billet housing cap. Carefully push down on the bypass valve inside your OEM cap and deflect the spring to 1 side fully. The whole bypass valve will then unclip from the plastic OEM cap. Install it in the same position into our billet cap. It is easiest to do this on a work bench, just use a suitable deep well socket to fit against the spring bypass valve, face the cap down (bowl at top) while aligning the bypass valve with the metal tangs on our billet housing. Then apply about 10 lbs of force downward while wiggling side to side gently. Your existing bypass valve will snap into place over the metal tangs in our housing. YOU MUST INSTALL THE BYPASS VALVE. If you do not, the oil will simply bypass the filter and will not be cleaned.

When installing this cap into the oil filter housing, please clean all threads and use a bit of anti-seize on the threads of our part to make this easier to remove during your next oil change. Also, be sure to lubricate the o-ring with some fresh oil so it is not torn during installation. This part doesnt come with the O-ring -- that comes with the filter itself.

VW/Audi 1.8T/2.0T Billet Intake Links !

GruvenParts.com is proud to announce the release of these billet intake drive unit linkage arms for the VW/Audi 1.8T and 2.0T engines!.

Ours are Guaranteed for Life! - Would VW / Audi say that about theirs ??!

This GruvenParts.com billet linkage arm replaces the plastic intake manifold linkage arm found on p/n 06J-133-201-AS (06J133201AS) manifold, as well as manifold part numbers 06J-133-201-AL, 06J-133-201-G (06J133201AL, and 06J133201G).

As you already know if you are reading this, the OEM linkage arm is made from cheap plastic and becomes very brittle in the engine heat. The linkage arm socket often pops off of the ball on the manifold, rendering the variable intake manifold useless. This in turn causes a check engine light to illuminate as well as poor driveability, reduced power, and reduced fuel economy. Of course VW/Audi will not sell you *JUST* this part, you have to buy and install an entire new intake manifold to replace the cheap plastic linkage arm (with another cheap plastic linkage arm). While the manifold is pricey, the installation of the manifold and the entire manifold gasket set is where it will really cost you – most dealers and shops charge about $1,200 to remove/replace the intake manifold!

We think having to pay over $1,200 to replace a poorly designed plastic part on your intake manifold is ridiculous (and that’s putting it nicely).

GruvenParts.com is now producing these linkage arms the way VW/Audi should have: from a solid chunk of 6061-T651 Aircraft Grade Aluminum on a 4 axis CNC milling center. Ours come with a special Delrin insert installed into the machined socket to precisely mate with the ball on the intake manifold. This provides excellent lubrication and unmatched strength. Did we mention Ours are Guaranteed for Life!

This part can be installed with the manifold on the engine. Unclip the 2 actuator halves and remove the long spring and rubber diaphragm within the actuator. Unclip the useless plastic linkage arm from the manifold ball (if it hasn’t done that on its own already). Reinstall the rubber diaphragm onto our billet link arm, slide it thru the actuator, then firmly snap it onto the ball. Replace the spring and snap the actuator halves together. This should take 10 minutes, and you can do this yourself – no need for $1,000 in labor to replace a whole manifold!


You asked us for it and we listened. Another great billet replacement part to rid your VW/Audi of the weak plastic parts!

Applications:
Volkswagen : Beetle, EOS, CC, Golf and Jetta V and VI, Passat B6, and Tiguan 1 and 2 with the 1.8T or 2.0T engine w/ intake manifold p/n 06J-133-201-AS (06J133201AS), 06J-133-201-AL (06J133201AL), or 06J-133-201-G (06J133201G).

Audi :

Billet VR6 Crack Pipes for ALL VR6 Engines Corrado thru R32!

MACHINED FROM 6061-T651 ALUMINUM TO EXACTLY MATCH OEM PIPE DIMENSIONS - OURS DOES NOT COME WITH CHEAP THIN WALLED TAPPED FITTINGS LIKE OTHER LESSER PIPES !!

12V and 24V VR6 Coolant Pipes aka Crack Pipes

GruvenParts.com was the 1st to build this part and it’s what started us off! We manufacture this pipe EXACTLY to match the OEM part shape so there is NEVER a fitment issue. Be careful when considering other billet pipes which do not match the exact shape of the OEM pipe. The fitment of this part is tricky and the shape MUST BE IDENTICAL to the OEM part to ensure correct alignment between the water pump and thermo housing.

If you have a billet crack pipe in your VR6, chances are it was made by us. Hand crafted in our Aerospace shop using O-rings from the Boeing 777, proven by many hours of track time, it's the highest quality crack pipe you can buy. It's on all of our track cars and has withstood countless hours of track abuse! Our pipe has a modular design which allows you to plug the oil cooler feed line with a ¼ NPT plug if installing an external oil cooler. Ours can also be ordered with a chrome plated drain valve for quick and clean coolant flushes. The pipe can also be ordered with a brilliant chrome finish for those seeking the ultimate engine bay bling!

3.2L MK5 VR6 Billet Lightweight Pulley Kits

MK5 3.2L VR6 Lightweight Pulley Kit

You guys asked for Billet Aluminum super strong, super lightweight MK5 3.2L VR6 Pulleys and GruvenParts.com listened!

We are pleased to offer our super sleek billet lightweight crank, water pump, and alternator pulleys for your 3.2L MK5 VR6 engine. These pulleys are precision CNC'd from aircraft grade 6061-T651 billet aluminum. Complete pulley set reduces the engine rotating mass by over 8.5 lbs !!

Lightweight Billet Aluminum MK5 3.2L VR6 Crank Pulley -- Normal Drive, Not Underdrive.

It’s time to lose the boat anchor of the steel Audi and VW VR6 crank pulley. This 500 gram lightweight version is the lightest crank pulley out there and IS NOT UNDER-DRIVEN so it wont cause problems with overheating or low alternator voltage! DO NOT RUN AN UNDER-DRIVEN CRANK PULLEY ON YOUR MK5 R32!!! Your engine needs all the water pump speed it can get to properly cool, and also needs proper alternator voltage to spin the electric fans at the correct speed. Using an under-driven crank pulley will cause your VR6 to run hot and is NOT RECOMMENDED. This NORMAL DRIVE lightweight crank pulley will allow the engine to spool up faster while preventing inertial losses caused by the overweight OEM pulley. Comes with a specially machined replacement key for a perfect fit. Fits all of the MK5 3.2L VR6 engines. Please note that this pulley IS 6 rib and specifically machined for the MK5 R32. Replaces OEM P/N 022-105-243J (022105243J)

Lightweight Billet Aluminum MK5 3.2L VR6 Water Pump Pulley

The OEM steel water pump pulley is stamped which creates internal stresses that eventually cause the pulley to crack at the sharp bend radius. Needless to say, you don’t need this problem on a hot running VR. Ours is machined from a solid block of aluminum with generous corner radii and is therefore many times stronger than the OEM. Weighing in at a scant 250 grams, its less than half the weight of the stamped OEM steel pulley. Fits all of the MK5 3.2L VR6 engines. Replaces OEM P/N 021-121-031D (021121031D).

Lightweight Billet Aluminum Alternator Pulley

A 100 gram paper-light billet aluminum version of the steel OEM alternator pulley that lets the motor spin more freely. Complete your pulley set for a show quality engine bay. Fits all MK5 3.2L VR6 engines.
