Re: Porsche 944: Actually there is a substitute

I'll have to do a little research but I'm thinking the 8.8 diff is not going to work because for the drive line to clear the 944 swing arm torsion bar housing it puts the CL of the diff about 3.5" higher than the CL of the wheels while at approx ride height.

I doubt the axles would like running with that much offset all the time. Does anyone have advice?

I think that I either have to see if there is a way to mod the center of the 944 torsion bar housing so that I can run the drive line right through it, or - scrap the 944 suspension altogether and stuff the Mustang straight axle setup in.
