hey all. im looking to get some axle stubs off of a 76-84 911. i am doing the subi tranny that porscharu is doing and i was trying to come up with anther way to adapt the cvs to the project. im using vw bus axles with the 100x6 bolt pattern which is what the magic flanges are set up for. the other side of the bus axle, the wheel side doesnt mate up to the 914 stub axle. i know you can just switch the cvs out but i was thinking of another rout. are there any years where the 911 had the 100x6 bolt pattern and the splines that match the 914 rear hubs. i have found pieces of info that would sugjest that the 76-84 stubs would work and ive seen some pics of them that looks like it would work. but i dont know for sure. does anybody know or has anybody looked at this? any info would be great. also i am intrested to buy them if anybody has them around.
thanks |

That will permit me to use the 930-style CVs. My plan is to use the factory Subaru rosette joint at the Suby trans side, 930 CVs at the outer end, and have custom axles cut. Are you dead-set on using VW van axles? Geoff I'm using 911 axles cut and resplined to use the Subaru joint on the transaxle end. At the wheel side I'm using 911 stubs and hubs. I've had these done at a major axle shop. The stock 914 axles are also long enough to be cut and resplined. They are the same diameter as the 911 axles but are longer. The bus axles are about 1 1/2" shorter than the 914 axles. Bob |
