Hi Michael

Looks great (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif)

What kind of stub axles those are ?? Some conversion alxles ?? They don´t look original.

How much do you use MittelMotor ?? Do you have other good Porsche parts shops there ??

BTW, I haven´t forgot the AutoCAD file. I just should go through all my old back-up files. I will do that soon. Hope you have still time to wait couple of days. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif)

Hi Timo,
no problem, don´t hurry. As you can see i am working on several projects (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif)

That axles are reproduction stuff from Mittelmotor, they should substitute the original 916/6 axles.

Had some trouble with mittelmotor, so i decided to avoid them where possible.

An other good store is the "914 Teilevertrieb Bempflingen". Mr.Stöckel is the owner.

He also have a nice cataloque but no online store.

I am buying the most (new) parts there. Very fast shipping, and no problems till now.

But whats about this: The Car is now round about 35 Years old, no one nows how the car left the factory (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) Tell all people it is originaly equiped with that nice Fuchs wheels. Is this a plan?

Yep, sounds like a plan. So even the TUV system has a few loopholes. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

From my time in Germany, I remember how the TUV system was much more strict than the typical US state vehicle registration office. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif)

I bought a 5 Lug conversion kit from Otto's about 10 years ago with repro stub axles that look just like those. I wonder where they were sourced. I always thought that maybe Swayaway (off road parts mfg) made them.

Of course 911 parts. There is no way to mount the oem 5 lug hubs to an four banger strut. But there are some aftermarket solutions i saw on the board.

So on the front setup that spacer gives you the right offset for the 911 Fuchs? Are the rotors stock 911 equipment. It just looks so different.
