So, I pulled the axles out of my 986 parts car...fun fact, they fit in the 996 hubs! The distance from where the outer CV meets the wheel bearing to the end of the threads for the axle nut is about 1/2" shorter than the 996, so the nut will need some loctite.
Also, the 986 axle flanges do fit into the manual transmission from a VW Passat. So, you can put a VW Passat transmission into a 996 using Boxster axles and flanges. Who knew? Not sure this will be useful to anyone but me, but I figured I'd post up the info.
