I gave up on the 944 hub and just got a 911 hub from Eric here: www.pmbperformance.com/


In the end it was not that much more money and a better fit.

Just swapped that 5MM spacer from the stub axle side to the hub side, and still ran the 944 stub axle. I just kept the factory brakes with re-drilled stock 914-4 rotors.

In order: coarse spline 915 trans output shaft > 944 CV>machined 914 axle>944 CV>944 Stub axle>911 hub with 5mm spacer.

If money is not really an issue, buy adapter blocks and run full Boxster brakes with a 911 e-brake.
