not sure how many ppl know this.. but a vw cabriolet's inner cv's are the same size as bus... you can actually buy them at the local parts store...the cv it self is around 80.00 with a 90 day warranty... but you can buy a complete axle ass. for around 60.00 and they come with lifetime warranty..... :shock:

anythings possible but i dont think you would benefit from it and you would have to make trailing arms ...to much work and know advantages...the left and right axle are different lenghts just so you know

havent used them yet picked up a car for the motor n figured i better pull the axles aprt n ck them out...well as far as i know type 4 for and porsche cv's have the most travel at 22 degrees other than race prepd, 930's an so on, maybe im wrong...they have said they can run 18 with no work which is more than type 2's...they aslo run two different sizes, 90mm and 100mm... which you know, you need 100mm...
