Hi Scott do the 01E come in a FWD version or must it be changed over and do you sell a kit to do it
Yes 01E come in 2WD.. However only the input shaft, first/2nd gears and the front and center cases are shared between the AWD and 2WD versions.
An AWD to FWD kit would be extremely expensive and you will be better off buying an entire gearbox. Pretty much any 6 speed Longitudinal Audi/VW/Skoda/SEAT made from 1998-2003 is an 01E.
However if you find a used on somewhere plan on spending some money to have the pinion bearing replaced and syncros changed, as many of the production boxes have problems with these.
To convert an AWD box to a 2wd box you will need:
Crown wheel and pinion gear
First gear bearing
Second gear bearing
3-6 gears
Pinion bearing
Rear Pinion shaft bearing
Rearmost housing
Various snap rings shims etc...
