Starting in 1976 (MKIV) the front trunion bushing was enlarged, that bushing (21A2560/POLY) is now available in Poly. These later cars use 4 of each 21A5818/POLY and 21A2560/POLY.

Question:

1971 998 Is there specific clearance for the differential side cover bushing and the output yoke shaft?

Answer:

After the bushing is installed it will probably need to be reamed or honed to the correct size. This size will vary depending on the shaft OD. The resulting clearance should be around .0015.
