I was wondering if there are any differences between the 914-6 and 914-4 CV joints. Also if the axles are different?
I think I may have a bad CV. I am taking them apart and cleaning and re-gresing them, but with the 914-4 CV out of production I am wondering if the 914-6 people are in the same boat. Thank you for the info.

The Cv joints are for up to mid year 1984 911 parts. (6) 8 mm bolts.
The Trans output flanges are coarse spline 915.
The Stub axles are 911 again up to mid year 1984.

The axle shafts are modified 914/6 axles.

The 944 CV joints are supposed to have the same spline pattern as the 914-4 axle shafts, but again the ends need to be modified to accept the wider CV joints.

I do not know about 944 stub axles.

Many thanks John. I believe Clay used a 944 stub, but this requires machining of an extra shoulder on the 944 part. Using a 911 stub makes a lot of sense.
