    You gotta be a little more specific, NA or turbo Capri? Inner or outer CV?

    If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

      Well my cv axles on the festy are bad and I am swapping a b6 in soon and was wondering if the cv axle are the same and if I can swap as well the Capri is non turbo.

        Capri has a wider track width. The longer CV shafts might need at least Aspire lower control arms to expand the track.

          ^^thats only if you swap Capri hubs onto a festiva, the axles are the correct length for a festiva stock (or aspire) brakes

          I've heard the the F series axles are the same as an automatic festiva's axles

            Why aren't you just using Festiva CV's? You can get lifetime warranty CV's that are re-man'd in TN for like $55 each.

                NA Capri axles should work in an auto festy only.

                  And the NA Capri 5 speed axles (f series) can only
                  Be used with the F series Trans correct?
