Subject:      924 cv joints
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1

Dear listees,
I bought a Porsche 924 cv joint, because they
supposedly have more articulation than the vanagon cv
joints (22 vs 17 deg if I remember right) I have them
both sitting in front of me now. I'm surprised how
similar they are. The biggest difference is that the
balls in the Porsche joint are smaller. So here is the
question for the experts: What determines the maximum
running angle of a cv joint? BTW does anyone know
where that info about articulation (22 vs 17 deg)
comes from. I read it on the list but can't find it
anymore. I get the suspicion that the Porsche joint
isn't any stronger, maybe even the opposite.
Take care,
Reinhard
