It's probably about time I replied on this too.
The 944 axles are different lengths , although one of them is close to the Beetle axle lenght. I was going to keep the Beetle ones but the spined ends are not long enough. So it's either type 2 axles or another 944 thats needed. Any view?
As for CV joints they are the same between the 944 and type2, except in cost and parts supplied. German & Swedish here in the uk charge £38 for the porsche part and £31 for the type2, not that bad but when you realise that the type 2 part comes with grease and boot and bolts included and they are the same part. I feel sorry for 944 owners. G&S are not even hiding it, the part numbers are the same but one has a P on the front!
Supa Ninja posted this last year that I then found.
