Has anyone used type one CV joints? They are dimensionally the same. The type one joint does not use the gasket like the original joint. Also all the holes are the same size and will not accommodate the 10 mm roll pin.
 I made some pins that fit the stub axle and transmission flange while fitting the hole in the type 1 CV joint. That way no modification is required to either component.  I used 1211 sealant in place of the gasket.  Anyone else done this? |

Are these CV's better? Stronger? Cheaper? What, if any is the advantage?
Cheers, Elliot |

QUOTE(Elliot Cannon @ Oct 26 2010, 06:31 PM)  Are these CV's better? Stronger? Cheaper? What, if any is the advantage? Cheers, Elliot Type 1 CVs are really easy to find and can be found for low cost. The only draw back is their maximum working angle is only 17 degrees compared to 22 degrees in our original 914 CV. This is due to the smaller balls and cage in the T1 CV. Empi (yeah I know they don't have the best reputation) makes an "off road race Type 2 CV" that has a working angle of 25 degrees and has a chromoly ball cage and bigger balls, they take more torque. You know bigger balls is better. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I've read good things about the empi race CV on some other forums when I was doing some research. And T2 CVs will interchange with T1 CVs. Some good info below,, http://www.blindchickenracing.com/How_to/C..._joints_101.htm -Robert |
