915.06 transmission hub question

[sdether]

I've got a 915 apparently out of a 74 911 (915.06). On the hubs that connect to the axles are 4 threaded holes for bolts, one unthreaded hole and opposite it on the the hub a single "pin".

The bubs on the axles from my 901 (this is a 69 991E) are excactly the same size and all holes seem to mate up, except there are two "pins".

I noticed that pelican sells only one set of axles for 69-73 and I spent some time digging through axles at a local dismantler, where I found only the two pin configuration or 6 bolt with smaller hubs.

This leads me to wonder whether that "pin" is removable from the tranny hub. Anyone come across this? Is there a trick, do i need to get a machine shop to drill it out?

thanks,
arne

Arne,

Yes, the Spiroloc pins are removeable ... generally with hand tools, penetrating lube, etc. As you have found ... rust sometimes makes them stubborn to remove!

The '69 - '71 axle and CVs are interchangeable with the '72 - early '75 axles and CVs, as a unit.

Yes! Finally a part that will fit! This does lead me to another question.. How on earth to you get the CV Joint boots back on ( three of them slipped off removing the axles). I mean the rubber is a bit smaller, as you'd expect but mostly there's all the joint grease that makes it impossible to get a grip on these suckers

thanks,
