Not too sure about this method. You could use a 944 aluminum backing plate, and you will need a spacer to capture the bearing properly, BUT then you only have a oil seal to rely on to prevent oil from leaking. By using the 924 ones, you use the stock beetle bearing caps and you have a oil seal AND slinger to prevent oil leaks. I'll try to see if it's possible to machine a 944 aluminum one for a swingaxle setup....
