ok im new to this whole thing so dont kill me for asking this if this is a stupid question but my 70 baja has a 73 transmission and i can only get one tire to spin. is this a problem with my differential or is it nothing since i dont know much about these transmissions or anything for that matter.
thanks.

1 tire spinning is usually the norm with a stock vw trans. Or a built one for that matter. Unless you come a cross a limited slip diff you will only get the roost from 1 wheel. don't worry about it.

Is it typically one wheel peel on a particular side? I bought a project that has BFG's and the passenger side is alot more worn then the drivers side. If I swap the tires from side to side do you think I can stretch my money?
