I gotta give a thanks to Aaron and all the others who passed on the info that 944 cv's and 914/4 axles are a much more wallet friendly alternitive to a custom made axle setup for a 914/6.


Everything work as indicated,with one exception.


I chose to take the 944 stub axle,and machine the bearing contact area flat as the original /6 stub.With a small radius in the corner.

I did this to get an additional .200" of free movement in the axle shaft,since I had to program up an adaptor for my 915 trans output flange.No spacer is used.

( HINT)Use a ceramic insert in your tool holder,and this is a less than 10 minute job.

All said,I have about 3/4-1" of total axle float with everything locked down,and the car stiing level on pavement.
