Yes, but not on a 914.

Look as though they could be Vette axles

Early 911 axles? The Haynes manual shows the same axles on a 911.

That is a drive shaft there also?
Those axles are Nadella type, but not from a 911 that I know of. Definitely not 914.

Those are from a Pantera, or Corvette

I've seen 911 Nadellas rebuilt like that, and possibly 904/906 axles may have been that design. Been close to 30 years since I was under a 904, though, and the ol' memory isn't what it was, what with the dissolute life my brain endured for a while ..........

The Cap'n

not vette... no slip joint on vette half shafts.

I'll tell ya what they are...

Those are prehistoric CV joints back before they invented real ball type CV joints.

They used them on Ford GT's back in the 60's and because of the joints, they speed up and slow down the wheel as the wheel moves up and down and the joints flex.....

The onliest thing that made them useable is a big corregated rubber disk molded in the joint and designed to be compressed and stretched as the joint flexes to smooth outh the acceleration and deceleration of the wheel from the up and down motion.

Science and technology has marched on.
