SACC Restorations is extremely excited to announce some CV joint products that are geared towards both the do-it-yourselfers and folks that would rather buy a bolt on product.
The first product is for the do-it-yourselfer…
The Pantera High Performance CV Joint Axle Shaft Adapter Kit. For the do-it-yourselfers this kit consists of 4 CV joint adapters that allows you to create your own CV joint axle kit using readily available parts for the remainder of the axle assemblies.
These adapters allow you to bolt up 108mm Porsche CV joints (930) to the ZF and Pantera Stub Axle. The adapters are fabricated out of 4130 chromoly to reduce weight while maintaining strength requirements.
The CV joint adapters will center and bolt up to your ZF Axle Flange and the Wheel Stub Axle while maintaining the water and air tight integrity required for protection. Another nice thing about these adapters is they are thicker than what others have made. This gives them 2 advantages:
>The first advantage is they are stronger than the others out there.
>The second advantage is there is no center cutout in the middle of the adapter.
The nice thing about this is you can completely assemble and grease them on your workbench. Once assembled, the greased areas are completely contained. The axle assembly is easy to install and it takes the messy part of running CV joints out of the picture. If you have ever had to install a pre-greased CV joint on a car, you know what we mean. Messy job, these adapters do not have the center hole so no mess.

The next product is for the guy that doesn’t want to search for the parts to put the kit together or worry about what is the correct axle length, etc. He doesn’t mind the messy work of greasing the assembly or torqueing down the 24 CV to Adapter bolts.
The Pantera High Performance CV Joint Axle Shaft Kit – no grease. This CV Style Axle Upgrade Kit uses the 108mm Porsche CV joints on both ends with protection boots to keep in grease and keep contaminants out. This kit includes the Chromoly CV Joint adapters offered in the adapters only kit mentioned above.
To continue the build out of the axle assembly, high performance 108mm CV joints are used but the stock cages are discarded and upgraded to Chromoly high performance units. The full floating axles are also made from high strength Chromoly and have been cut to the correct length for the Pantera. SACC Restorations also machines axle retaining clip slots at the correct location to prevent the full floating axles from crashing into the adapter cups during axle plunge.
The axles are torsional by design which buffers shock loads to the ZF, thus potentially saving you thousands of dollars in ZF repair costs.
These axle assemblies come completely assembled however they MUST be greased and the bolts torqued prior to installation.

The final product for this announcement is for the guy that just wants to buy the axles and install them without the fuss and mess of having to grease the CV joints and torque the 24 CV to Adapter bolts.
The Pantera High Performance CV Joint Axle Shaft Kit – greased!
This kit is exactly the same kit as the previous kit except that it comes completely greased and the 24 CV to Adapter bolts are all torqued to 80 pounds.
This is truly, a bolt on upgrade!!!
