ok, i got the 944 CV's off the shaft ...
i wanted to know if the wear was too bad so i took them apart. looking good! almost no wear (came off a 944 turbo) ... i cleaned them up thoroughly as i was told not to mix different kinds of CV grease and now the question is: how do i pack them with new grease? grease the parts first, then try to assemble or assemble dry and then pack the whole thing?

both ... i have had one bad axle ever since i got the car. lots-a-play. clonk clonk clonk ... that, and my desire to have *real* 5 lug in the rear and not just redrilled hubs and the fact the bradhole lost my 914-6 stubaxles made me look for alternatives. i used clay's shopping list and assembeled all parts needed (from tranny to wheel) - late '70s 911 drive flange that will fit the 901 but have the larger 6-bolt 911 flange - 944 turbo CV, will fit the flange - 914 axle, will fit the CV - 944 turbo CV, will fit the axle - 944 turbo stub axle, will fit the CV - early 911 hubs (pre ~'73) fit the 914 wheel bearing and will fit the stub axle this will give you *real* 5-lug at the hub as well as bigger/stronger CVs and the assembly has the correct length (unlike early 911 axels) ... NOTE: in my search for parts, i came across a set of 914 axles that had a different spline! john at EASY wasn't sure if they were aftermarket or 914-6, but the standard 914-4 axle has 32 splines (so has the 944 turbo) and said pair had only 24 splines and thus didn't fit. so watch out for the correct splines (count 'em) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smash.gif) Andy |
