QUOTE(mskala @ Apr 14 2014, 12:36 PM)  So what you're saying is ... No, that's you putting words into my mouth (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) What i'm saying is that after 40+ years, there's a lot of hubs out there with studs that aren't perfectly straight anymore and there's also plenty of wheels that aren't prefect anymore. I know because i have both of those problems above ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) |

Maybe the OP will enlighten us as to the source of those turned down hubs , they do look like 944 / 951 hubs . Could be the reason to turn down, shorten ??? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

911 started using the hub centric hubs in 74. Not sure about using 944 hubs. There are probably more 74 and later hubs than the 69 to 73 hubs that are the desired five lug swap. I think you are also going to need the 74 and later longer stub axle.

QUOTE(worn @ Apr 14 2014, 11:45 AM) Is the difference in shaft lengths the reason I had to offset my M calipers when I used a 911 stub? I should have done more reading before assembly. No. That's because of the vented rotor. 914-6's use a 911 rear hub. |

Remember, once you do this, the rotor offset will be your biggest challenge. Too busy fighting Cayenne's today to measure the offset of the 944's here.
