This kit from JBugs looks like it would work on the 914. Maybe?
The sale Price looks good also. https://www.jbugs.com/product/16-2236.html VW 930 Axle Kit - 20 1/4" - with 28 Spline Axles  |

Yes it will work IF you have flanges and stub axles. Says they are BACKORDERED.

I would drill two of the holes to 10mm ans install roll pins. Not sure about the axle lenght as VW bug axles are shorter |

Corrected my yes statement. You need 911 hubs and stubs to make them work. Add about $1k for them.

If you have the 911 stubs and hubs along with the 108mm flanges on the transmission side (the same parts you will need for those $595 axles), these will work and are only $30 per axle: https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk...288&jsn=475 Here's further discussion on the subject: http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?sho...=368822&hl= This also means you'll need 5 bolt wheels, as the 28 spline hubs only come for the five lugs. |
