What is this 914 tool?
This is from a 1998 Porsche special tool catalog...but I dont understand how it might be used on a 914, do you know?. I assume it is for the transaxle...any other help you can provide? From other tools in this catalog it might possibly be a 914/6 tool, but this graphic is all I have found about it.

Gee, Jeff, it's a stub axle gauge. Says so right there!
 My guess is that this is used to install the bearings in the diff housing that support the output flanges and their stub shafts. If so, it's not a 914/6 specific part, and in fact should be usable with any 901 derived transaxle, including the early 911. I've seen a couple of cases where bushing and bearing are used interchangably in English translations of German documents. |

I thought the bearings were mounted to the stub axle shaft this way? Are there other bearings mounted to the case?

P69's an early tool number, likely for checking 356 front spindles.

Anyone have a photo of P69 in use they can post? The catalog lists it as a 914 tool, makes no mention of it perhaps also being a 356 tool...although that doesn't mean its not a 356 tool too.
