I am 100% sure they're from a /6.
Length is 20 1/4 inches long, but splines on a /6 are 25, not 28. Unfortunately the axles I have don't have CV's on them, just bare axles. Hence the reason for my earlier question about what /6 owners do when they need new CV's. |

Just dealt with this. Car is a '70 914-6 (#2455). I used 911 axles which mount 100mm cv's. They are 25 spline, just like 914-6 axles, but 0.75 inch shorter as seen here:

Although the 911 and 914-6 axles are 25 spline, a 100 mm 911 cv won't fit on a 914-6 axle as the splined length on the 911 axle is a few mm longer, so the 914-6 axle won't accomodate the 100 mm cv and the outer circlip:

You can use a 100mm 911 stub in a 914-6 hub. Both are 28 spline:

To make it work, get 0.75 inch spacer. This one made by patrick ms:

Buying the proper length axles is better IMO. $308 bucks. No spacers etc.
