This works. I've done it. Rides fine with no sway bar right now, barely feel a difference. I used RSK coilovers for a mk3 Jetta. Swapping the front mounts were the hardest and taking the rear strut mount off was a bitch too need a special to so I would spend the money and buy new mounts. Grinded the spindle smooth both sides and the slid right in. Gives -2.5 degree of camber. Feel free to post questions. i know this post is old but keep it alive
