Gents,
Im working on sourcing axels for my WRX conversion and Im having some trouble. I've reached out to ColdWater914 repeatedly over the past 2 months and can't get in touch with them. Is there any other source for these axels? Or do I have to mock up a 911 / Subaru hybrid axel and send them out to an axle shop to have them custom made? Id love to just checkbook this one! Thanks, Mat |

They will make what you need. You may need the spec's but I think those are floating on here somehwere. They may even have them. |

I got recommendations for Advance Adapters, Mark Williams Enterprises, and for Driveshaft Shop. Sway-Away will cut them if I send specs, so might end up going that route. Open to other ideas! (what the heck happened to ColdWater?) |

Dutchman axles shortened and resplined my 914 axles to a Subaru spline for $160 shipped. All you need is to provide a length

You just have to know the right length. about .25" of wiggle room in my experience, and I think it differs slightly from car to car! |
