Good afternoon everyone,

I have just checked the CV joints on my 1975 ex California car and one joint has been assembled the wrong way round and worn badly.

I therefore need to replace this inner cv joint.

Does anyone know if the Porsche part number 914 332 029 03 is interchangeable with any VW part.

Thanks in advance.

Tony

The VW bug joint can be adapted but it does not gave the two 10mm holes for the roll pin. Nor does it have the recess for the gasket. Check with OMB Performance. I think they were modifying the bug joints. Or buy a complete axle.

Your part number is actually for the 914-6 axle, it will not go on because it is 28 spline not 33 for the 914-4,

It's weird the PET only lists the 914 332 029 03 part number, and says it's for 914-4's, doesn't list a version for the 914-6 at all. I believe you, of course. There was a thread on it here just last week.

Does the complete axle, like the one auto atlanta sells have 914-4 cv joints or are they the 914--6 joints?
