Hi Guys:
I wondered if you can help me as I am upgrading to a 915 gearbox from the 901. I know the hubs have to be changed, but I do not know which axles are required. Could someone tell me if the 911 100mm axles and CV joints fit or do they have to be modified in some way such as with spacers. Thanks in advance for any help. Rob |

Don't forget to flip the ring and pinion.
There are a couple of good threads with info. http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=102988 http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showforum=5 In the above thread there are links to axle upgrades. I chose the 930 sway away axles with 108mm cvs on both ends, but you can convert the 914 axles with some machining to use 100mm cv Patrickmotorsports.com specializes in the wevo kit. He has everything you need off the shelf or you can mix and match from various vendors. I also went with the above Martin bott 916 kit, so I mixed and matched various components and vendors |
