I don't have my car here to get measurements so I am hoping someone has dealt with this. I have 69 911S flanges and stub axles (108mm cv's) that work perfect but the flanges are not hub-centric. I would like to modify a set of 77 hub-centric flanges to work if possible since I have an extra pair.

I know the bearings are wider on the 77 flanges. Anyone know what they did different? Is the flange overall length wider to allow a wider bearing or is the bearing fit area machined further towards the flange itself making a wider fit area? Since I have a lathe, I can modify......

Anyone used these?
