Suby axle and DOJ cv issue., 25 splines to the diff, 30 splines to the axle. What CV is this? Options

[ruby914]

I put a 02 WRX motor in my 914 and have a MY03 TY754VN2BA trans staged for transplant.
I needed inboard CV’s so I went down to the local pick-a-part and got CV’s off of a 99 Legacy.
One CV was green the other was black. More so the black had ball and cage, the green had the tri roller setup. Both CV’s had the 25 spline count so I felt all was good.
Next, I sent a set of 914 axles with the inner race from the black CV to a machine shop to have them re-splined to fit the inner CV race.
When I got them back they fit great. Problem is the green CV has a different spline count inside the CV. I didn't notice this before.
ID on the green is 9 SFJ 82 NTN A R 3 T 29 splines to the drive shaft "trunnion" (inner race).
ID on the black is DOJ 87 AC NTN 30 splines to the drive shaft.
So my axles were splined for the DOJ 87 AC
Was this a mistake? I have searched the net and can’t find what model cars these fit. Can’t tell if it was proper for the car it came from. I think not.
I would hope to have chosen something common.

Anyone have an idea what cars these come from?
I would like one more DOJ 87 AC to get the project moving.
Maybe I should I re-spline a 2nd set of axles to something more common?

I am a little confused here. I think it was after 04 that the CV had shafts to the trany and the inner race "trunnion" was 30 splines. Did any of you do axles for the 03 and what spline count did you use?

I'm having good luck with mine staying on but I don't think I have enough slack for one to come apart. It is a very close fit when installing them. FWIW, mine are not floating and have the CV clips in place. Mike, don't weld that cage. Call me. I've got some spare cages. I haven't destroyed any CV's yet but I'm not dumping the clutch, either. However, my engine cradle isn't out of testing, yet. It passed it's 10 hr visual inspection. The next inspection will be at 50 hr's and I'll magnaflux it then. After that I might put my foot into it. Or, I may not. I'm pretty content with that 6 cylinder sound as I add power and hear it scream up to it's shift point. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

Kent, you have the cage for the DOJ 87?
Welded, I am sure it would get me home.
Before I weld it I was going to see if I could find a new replacement cage.
I have found links to new cages and inner races but don't know if they are still in business or sell to the public?
With conversion inner races, maybe there is a different CV that we could use with a stock 914 or 911 axle?
I have many links over on my NARP build thread. It's like my secret vault, I should move some over here. Many are saved on my PC as PDF. Need to find the links.

Here is one http://wenku.baidu.com/view/0a70a5a20029bd...ml?from=related

This one is good for max torque: http://www.ntn.co.jp/english/products/catalog/pdf/5603E.pdf

I would like to compare the #s to 914, 911 and 944 CVs

Here ya go, cut and paste from the secret vault.

Somehow cut and paste gave lot of bad links. They should be good now.
