For the 944 axle/944 cv setup? these stubs and pre 74 911 hubs?

how many splines so the 911 hubs have??

bumpo

25 splines....

so... there are 25 splines on a 914/6|911 Hub???

Aaaaaaaaaannnnnnnddddddddddddddyyyyyyyyyyyyy???? Ccccclllllllllllllaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy???????

yeah - i got 27 the first time.... but read 25 or 33 were available... but then realized, thats for CV splines

thanks andy...

now i need some CV's and some hubs.... and some output flanges

BTW - i payed single digits for the pair

I found out one detail that was missing.....


If you look at the 944 stubs, they have a shoulder. The 911 stubs do not. If you use the 944 stubs, they won't put the preload on the inboard side of the bearing.

You need a set of these. They are spacer rings that take up the slack where the shoulder is.

Call Wes Hildreth and tell him you need a set. He has them for sale. 972-423-8526.

Oh.. and work is taking a big bite out of my 914club time lately.

You? Paid money for car parts?

LMAO! Move this to the sandbox!

clay - can you elaborate? paint drawing or such?

i *think* what he means is that once the stubaxle is slid into the hub, the resulting surface that goes inside the wheel bearing is wider than the bearing itself, allowing for the hub to move (sideways) inside the bearing.

a small spacer on the stubaxle side of things would make it a tight & schnugg fit ...

PS: good catch clay!

i just did a quick measurement, about 3/16" of spacer needed ...

same as milling down the edge of the hub?

Mill down the edge of the hub and the back of the 944 stub axle hits the inside of the trailing arm.

where does this spacer go?

edit one of the above pics with an arrow....

Excuses the lousy paintbrush editing......

The spacer goes over the stub axle. It takes up the slack between the stub and the bearing caused by the shoulder on the 944 stub.

sweet drawing...
how much does wes want for them??

cheaper to make em on a lathe id guess...

I don't know. It didn't take him long to make the set in the picture. Call him and ask.


He can probably turn a set out today.

thanks for the info clay. again, you rock....

BTW - i just scored a set of 915 coarse spline flanges for 40 shipped

I looked up the references for the bearings, and it appears as if the 944, '83-'88 uses the same bearing sets; it lists an inner and an outer set for each rear wheel along with a grease seal. I suspect that shoulder is where the grease seal rides. '89-'91 S2, and '91-94 968 use the same bearing as the late 911's (#513180), which has the same bore as the 914 bearing (42mm), but a larger OD (80mm) and length (42mm). FWIW.

Andys

Where did you get the 915 flanges from and do they have more?

coarse spline flanges. hmm.

is that how you ask for them?
or is there a particular part number someone knows?

Coarse Spline 915 output flanges.... as opposed to fine spline....

If my sale goes south cuz of you.... ill kill you both

maybe we could get wes to make up a few sets at once and he'd make a special price?
i'm game.

oh


sorry pal. I dont want to pay more than you did though.
that would make me look baad.

if it does goes south i'll sell you my early hubs.

Sorry to hijack the thread, but Monday is Talk Like Pirate Day...arrgghhh!

I have access to 944 drive axles, are the cv or axles usable on the 914, are they stronger than stock 914, this is for a V8 conversion.

Please don't kill me!

They need to be 6 bolt output shafts (to match the 944 CVs). I believe most 915 coarse spline shafts were 4 bolt w/2 pins like the stock 914 ones just with a bigger CV. Looking at my earlier notes from Clay, the 6 bolts were used in some 75-77 915s and 1976 912E tranny.

Good luck finding everything. I was going to do this, but ended up going w/later Carrera axles with the friction welded stubs and adapaters from patrick motorsports. Much less headache tracking down the parts and machining things.
