gxl and turbo 2 rear end

Hey guys, I got a buddy of mine that bent his rear GXL passenger side semi trailing arm + knukle and I was wondering if a turbo 2 knukle and subframe would work with his gxl set up

Using his gxl diff and axles, to me it looks like the gxl axle will fit right with the turbo 2 knuckle I wana find out if it works or not beforr I attempt doing it for him


Sorry if im writing like a 9 year old but im driving to work and making a new thread haha

Thanks guys I greatly appriciate it!

The trailing arms and subframes are identicle between similar year (s4 or S5) trim levels. The only differences you'll run across is that the T2 rear diff and gxl rear diff do NOT share axles. Hubs are the same, axle splines are the same between turbo/nonturbo (4 and 5 lug included).

The only real annoyances come when cross series's, as theres a nut/bolt difference for the shocks between S4 and S5 (non-issue if you keep the nut/bolt from the replacement with the replacement)
