    Default 96 VD Spline Pattern

    Anyone out there know what sort of spline the wheel end of a 96 Van Diemen half shaft uses?

    Basically, I'm trying to figure out how I would move power from the diff to the wheels in leiu of a gearbox.

    From the diff to the wheels you'll use a half shaft- depending on the diff it may be standard 96 length, or you may need a custom length.

    Are you asking how many splines? I can go count if you need me to...

    Yeah, I'm wondering what the spline angle and count is on the wheel side. Alternately, what kind of CV joint is used at the inboard end? If it's a VW setup, I'm probably good to go.
