1973-1979 IRS Transaxle 12V 200mm Flywheel Housing Freeway Flyer

Our top quality remanufactured Air Cooled VW Freeway Flyer Transaxles are the best you can buy!

Each unit features:

Thoroughly cleaned and inspected outer cases
New synchronizer rings, tapered roller and needle bearings
Higher Gear Ratio of 3:88 compared to 4:12 or 4:37 Stock
Stock Gear Ratio leaves you with 3500 RPM @ 65mph, with a Freeway Flyer Transaxle with 3:88 Gear Ratio you can run at 75mph at the same 3500 RPM
Increased Freeway Speeds
Replaced or remachined shifting forks, gear assemblies, gear carrier bushings and hub assemblies
1st through 4th gear sliders get remachined to OEM specs.
Clutch release cross-shaft, spring retainers and bushings inspected and replaced if necessary
All new gaskets and oil seals
After assembly, the transaxle is tested for leaks and easy shifting.
12 Month 12,000 Mile Warranty

Tech Note: The freeway flyer transaxles will be slightly noisier in 4th gear due to the different gear ratio. You may also notice a tight shift between 3rd and 4th gear. Both of these should get better after 500 to 1000 miles.

How Does a Transaxle Core Exchange Work?

When you purchase a rebuilt transaxle for your VW, a core charge is added to your cart. This core charge is a refundable deposit (upon inspection) that encourages you to return your old transaxle. Here’s how it works:

Purchase: When you buy the new transaxle, you’ll pay an additional core charge upfront.
Return: After receiving the new transaxle, contact us to send your old transaxle back to the manufacturer.
Refund: Once they receive your old transaxle, they will inspect it to ensure it meets their requirements for refurbishment. If it does, the core charge will be refunded to you.

This system helps recycle and refurbish used parts, making it more environmentally friendly and cost-effective for everyone.
