Hi All,
Has anyone out there got any experience on shotening driveshafts or making hybrid ones?
The route I'm going is Audi transaxle and Porsche hubs, was thinking either 944 or 928, does anyone know if the PCD of the 928 hub is the same as the 944? From memory (which is getting worse) I recall that the PCD on the Audi box is larger, well it is on the RS4 quatro box that I measured, are all Audi driveshaft PCDs the same?
One lst thing, did I once read that Audi driveshafts are hollow, if so could this lend itself to sleeving two shafts together, just thinking out aloud.
Any ideas would help me decide one the hub to use as the Audi box idea is the most economical route I think, unless someone knows different,
Thanks folks

I got recommended this person for custom driveshafts, unsure if they are able to assist you.

Not used them myself.

Thanks mate,

I'll look in to it, not too far away either, always helps.

Cheers

Last time i asked Berrisford where only doing expensive shafts at 170ish each.

There is a place in coventry (Dave Mac Propshafts) that makes audi / other drive shafts for about 140 ish each.

(there prices are from about a year ago)

just received mine from berrisford, fit perfectly, and only about 90ish a side

would definitely use them again

woohoo - they're doing the 'cheap' ones again.

You could of course use the Audi hubs and just have them redrilled to the PCD that you want, any half decent machine shop should be able to do it. HTH Ray

audi 016 transaxle has 96mm pcd same as porsche 930 axles

This is great!
Thanks to all of you so far, all good info.
Please keep it coming.
Any off the wall ideas are always welcome.
