I have two spare (needig servicng) that have dowels - can I just lmoves the dowels over to the ready to use ones? Thanks, cranking to try to get this done and I really appreciate everybody’s help! (I did try searching first) |

QUOTE(Tdskip @ Sep 14 2020, 05:16 PM)  Just to follow on here and be more explicit, should I assume if any of the axles do not have the dowels/alignment pins that they are probably not 914? Not necessarily. If I remember correctly the -6 CV’s have six bolts and no pins. |

Not necessarily. If I remember correctly the -6 CV’s have six bolts and no pins. For a /6 it depends on the year of the stubs, mine have the early 70's big CV's that have pins and M10 bolts, later are just six M10 bolts. VW CV's are six bolt, for 4 bolt 914 you can use VW T1 cv's, IIRC you have to enlarge two holes slightly to accept the pins. |
