I'm getting ready to pull the trigger with Renegade Hybrids for some random parts for my conversion.
The price for the LS engine bar, rear boxster cradle mount, cooling kit are reasonable prices. However, they want 1200 dollars for 2 axles that bolt up to the boxster transmission to 911 hubs (which I don't have either) These 911 hubs are somewhat expensive too! Renegade is putting my order together soon, and will call me with their paypal info. Should I go ahead and use their product for the axles, or is there a cheaper route? Thanks |

Don't pay $1200 for axles. Call these guys http://www.pacificcustoms.com/porsche-930-...moly-axles.html. You will need 2 different lengths as the differential is offset. I'm running a 19-1/4" & 20-1/4" on mine. The Boxster S has a 108mm CV, same as 930 Turbo. Early 911 hubs are also 108mm. Buy 2 axles for around $200 and buy 930 CV's for around $100 each, or less. You will be about $600 into it but you still need stubs. Bruce Stone might have some. I bought a pair for around $200. If you call Pacific Customs, they will sell you individual axles so you don't need to buy a pair of each. Bolt Depot has the allen socket bolts pretty cheap. The Boxster S will use 6 per CV and the 911 stubs will use 4 each. The axles you need are 28 spline 930 style.
