I've read the threads but I'm still a bit confused. Can I use 944 hubs, stubs and cv's or just the 944 cv's with 911 hubs and stubs?

This setup is going on my suby conversion car. I'm using a suby trans so the inside cv's and trans stubs will be suby and coldwater conversion axles will connect to the outer stubs.

Thanks, mark

Thanks for the explanation.

Why use 944 cv's instead of 911.

The 944 cv joints (early or late I forget now) have the same spline count as the 914 axle. You could use the 911 cv's just the expense of buying a custom axle to mate it all up. To modify a 914 axle is easy for a machine shop. They did mine while I waited too maybe 40 mins or so. Seeing how you are going with a Suby trans you need custom axles anyways. Just get the right spline combo for the inner/outer cv's.
