I was playing with parts the other day. I took a set of 1971 911 transaxle stubs and they bolted up to my 914 transaxle. The hub and hub stub fit my trailing arms. I took turbo axles and they will bolted up to the stubs the only thing is they are about 3/4 inch to short. Does anyone make spacers or can I cut and move my hub housing in to make up the space.
Give Patrick Motorsports a call, I'm pretty sure they have the kind of spacers you need.
email Jim Smolka he made some up
Are you sure you used Turbo axles ?? With the parts you had laying around... it sounds like you would have used early 911 axles (which are a direct bolt in) The early 911 CV is the same size as the turbo CV. Dont run the turbo CV setup with these drive flanges. You need the 4 bolt 2 pin setup that orginally ran with the flanges. Ask me how I know.

Or you can talk to the folks at Sway-A-Way and tell them that you want 911 drive axles (911 splines) in the 914 length. You might even have to measure them and give them the numbers, but I'm guessing they already know...

I swear on my unborn children you can just buy new/rebuilt 911 axles and slide them in with this combo. People are not measuring correctly when they come up with this 1/4 inch short measurement.
I dont like the idea of spacers. Never have. Even though I ran them on V8 914's in the past.
