914World.com _ 914World Garage _ My 944/ 914 CV axles

Posted by: Phoenix 914-6GT Feb 12 2009, 03:39 PM

So I did the Sir Andy axles and just finished getting everything together. They won't go into my car for a few weeks but they are ready.

First picture is all the parts and tools I used. The black tool, for those of you who have not seen this before, is a tool for crimping the CV clamps.

Jon, Looks good.

Okay, now give us the parts breakdown. And what output shafts are needed on the transmission? Thanks.

Directly from Andy's thread:

two new 914 rear wheel bearings
four new 944 100mm 6-bolt CV joints including mounting bolts, boots and grease
two 911 ('75 - '79) 100mm 6-bolt coarse spline transmission output shafts
two output shaft seals
two 911 ('75 - '79) 100mm 6-bolt stub axles
four 911 100mm CV gaskets
two 911 ('69 - '73?) hubs, must have same bearing surface width as the 914 hubs
access to a lathe

The output flanges seem to actually be 76-79.

is there a solution for using 944 cv's but keeping everything else 914 - for a 4 lug cv enhancement?

So for those that chose to do this you may want to get bolts that are a hair longer than the ones that come with the 944 CVs. It would appear the 911 flanges are a bit stouter than the 944 and a 5mm longer bolt gives that much more piece of mind.

Those are pretty sweet Jon!

Thanks for the parts list, Jon. This thread needs to be saved.

Check out the the classics. There is a thread in there done by Andy and he is very descriptive in his work with what he did. You could merge this thread with that but it really doesn't need to be in there alone since their is one that was more thorough.
