ok, so there are two ways to do this im told, you can make a spacer to fill the area on the stub where the dust seal on a 944 used to live, or you can lathe that off, and let the stub sit deeper into the hub-

so here are pics with dimensions......
ill have to go back and write in the dimensions.... cant read the calipers on a few. (shoulda got the digital ones LOL)

the materials required.

Excellent articles and could not be more timely. This article should be made a classic thread.

Aaron, eat your heart out!!! I have two transaxle drive flanges in my parts bin AND will be using them in making the conversion as per this thread.

To make the early 911 hub concentric fitting, I will probably have a spacer machined to go between the wheel spacer/ adaptor and into the hub inner flange. One side concentric; other with machined lip.

I like the idea of using 944 half shafts without spacers as are required when using 911 half shafts. What year and model 944 half shafts are used in making this thread conversion?

I also like the idea of the 100mm 944 CV joints.
