I bought on thesamba what I thought were bus -to-bug axle shafts. Turns out they are approximately stock bug length with extra large splines.They are the long splines like sway-a-way. The splines are too big for porsche 930. I am going to return them unless someone knows what they are and needs them. Help me identify them if you can.

I ran into that too. I got a set of axles from a parts store thinking they would work. When I blew a joint a stock joint would not fit. Theyy were reman and had a ford part no stamped on them. This may be what you got. How many splines?

I count 28 splines.. The seller has reimbursed me. He still would like to know what they are so he can re-list them correctly.
