Please post up links or threads, including as much info as possible. Aim is to make a sticky thread of the latest info.

Is the A8 twin servo the best to use?

Can it be seperated into LHD and RHD, as LHD have it so easy

[Rusty]

Yeah, post it all up and flag LHD or RHD and I'll split it.

The LHD is a different job with different part numbers which will just confuse things.
Maybe change the title to RHD?

Anyway, what I am doing is as follows:

Use 2.0 16v servo - P/n 8A2 612 105 A
Plumb into vacuum reservoir for AC
Modify AC hardline to clear servo (if required)
Cut & reweld the bulkhead plug bracket
Reroute the brake lines (cosmetic only really)
Use single stage PAS pump from Porsche 944
Make custom spacer to use OEM bracket for PAS pump
OEM pump to rack hose

I think that's it?

In Regards to A8 servo I never heard of one fitted yet

Just Stating, That all info was easily found by a simple search ! there has been many threads quoting exactly what you need for a single servo type conversion

I do not have a thread, so I will not be posting links

On my ABY I had to cut out two brackets/supports to make room for the vacuum servo. One that braces the strut tower to the firewall, and another smaller one on the strut tower which is roughly at half the height of the servo. I think it was to mount a clip of some sort. These areas are both marked in the pic.

Why start a new thread when there is already one as a sticky. Combine the 2 and say LHD + RHD conversion. Error can use the above post and have the parts he got for the RHD. That way people wont be lost in similar threads.
