Yeah, it's not a problem. I've done quite a few sets for the short axle tubes. The machining is different from the long-axle, but it's do-able. Also, the 944 hub requires that the snout be...

I'm not sure about the long axle/ short spline setup. I'm trying to sneak in some time to mock it up. I did the long/long setup first, because it's the most common, especially with all the bus guys...

vw62rag,

Yeah, I was talking about the oil slinger on the long-axle long spline setup (1968 bug and all year T3's). I've always recommended the 924 parts, but now that they are getting harder to...

The pics there are for 944 aluminum backing plates that have been machined to retain the shortaxle bearing. My concern with that is that the 944 backing plates have a grease seal on them that was...

Yeah, the 924 ones are steel and the bearing cap is seperate (2 piece). The 944 ones are aluminum and the bearing cap is part of the backingplate (1 piece).

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...
