I am not sure. I don't recall them being a direct fit.

I opened a post in our forums. A Pelican community member may be able to answer your question.

The wheel bearings are the same and the outer hub will work. The issue comes in on the inner hub. It needs to be machined (outer diameter) to fit in the trailing arm. Then comes the issue of the axle. 911 axles and 914 axles are not the same length. You could fabricate axles but it would be expensive.
I tried this many years ago and decided that it wasn't worth the effort.
Hope that helps.

Go to 914World.com Classic section and read all you need to know about 5 lug conversion. Tells hubs, stub axles and axle conversions.

Early (70/71) 914 parts should be the same as well if I understand your question correctly.

I was just sent a thread (914world) where Eric made a simple set up using exact length sway away axles

That's what I did. I am running 1973 911 108mm stub axles and CV's, sway away 930 axles and 1986 inner 911 cv's to my 1986 915 gear box. I am also running a euro 3.2 motor. For a 914-6 914 trans, I would swap the trans flanges for coarse early 108mm flanges. For a factory 2.0 six this is all overkill.
