Without worring about axles or attaching to the transmission, the question is;
If I install 71 911 hubs and stub axles on my 914, can I bolt the 944 CV unit to the stub axle? Wes |

Wes,
Any reason not to use the 911 CV and axle on the outboard end? Inboard end will be custom anyway... I'm using 911 all the way to my 914 tranny - 72 stub, hub, CV, axle, CV, then coarse spline sportomatic flange. G |

SirAndy;
Can you please confirm that what you are using is; 1. 69-73 911 5 bolt hub. 2. 75-84 911 6-bolt stub axle (model specific?) 3. 944 CV. Am I correct that you are using the modified 914/4 axles due to being the closest to the needed lenght and that the modification is only length related? Wes |

Correct. the 914/4 axles shaft is (obviously) the right length, so all i did was machine it to accept the 944 CV (which is wider than a stock 914 CV). here is what i used, tranny to wheel: 915 (911, '75 - '79) coarse spline 6-bolt 100mm outputshafts -> 944 100mm CV -> modified 914 axle shaft -> 944 100mm CV -> 911 ('75 - '79) 6-bolt 100mm stub axle -> 911 ('69 - '73?) hub = real 5-lug! read more here: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=59486 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) Andy PS: it's been on my car for a while now and so far they're holding up very well despite the 3.6L abuse ... |
