You can use stock axles or buy the sway a way axles. For the most part stock axles will do fine.

Bus T2 on the inner and beetle T1 on the outer, unless you swap the outer drive axle to a thing/944 then you can run T2 on the outer as well.

I was told the lenghts are  different. also something about removing a retaining clip for the cv. Thanks for all the replies.
