So i will have the dimentions what i try to do is take 4 golf 5 gti long side axles i only need the the trans side these splines are the same as the 944 cv joints the are 42 mm in dia hollow tube . Cut them to lenght make a insert on the lathe so the will slip fit and then have them welded. Any advise is welcome gr henri Title: Re: Irs axle lenght question ??
