Dont panic build thread?

[panic]

I did some tear down the other night.
I'm not missing any peices, but the play is still there. We've come to the conclusion that the bug bearings are narrower then the porsche ones (I think, can someone back this up?) So I need to eather get a spacer or get the 944 bearings and press them into the hubs.

When it came down to it, the spindle was comming to far in on the axle shaft by about 2.3mm, so the rotor was hitting the backing plate.

Here I have two photos to help.





Has anyones else had this issue?

well it hard to tell in your pic if its the alum arm or the steel ones. If its the steel arms there is no difference in the bearing Porsche uses the vw part number 113-501-283 same as irs bugs if you have the alum arms then its a different bearing altogether 999-053-020-01.
