Another new guy question. The CV joints with the most available angle is the 934, correct? Or will the 930’s be fine with the smaller price tag?

Welcome to the site. Axle angle and travel will depend on axle length. Shorter axle will have more angle than a longer axle with the same 14 inches of travel.

That makes sense. Just trying to do some research before I tackle this project

934's can take more power than 930's.

What do you currently have . Converting 930 to 934 cv is costly . Cv bolts , stub shafts , cv , boots , trans flange , axles .

If you aren't going long-travel....it doesn't matter that much.

Sounds like you may be wanting to squeeze every available inch of travel out of your setup. If this is the case remember to use limit straps to stop the axel angle from exceeding the maximum angle when the car is airborne and allow for the eventual stretching of the straps making them longer over time.

What Bouy said. What ever happened to "Full Travel" ?

If you are currently running a 930s and not having any issues with them, stay with them unless you're ready to drop some coin.
to convert 930s to 934 you'll need
axles
cvs
boots
transaxle drive flanges
if micro stubs you'll need new stub axles or hubs depending on make
if midboards you'll need an entirely new hub assembly which will likely require trailing arm modifications or new trailing arms all together.
what kind of motor is in the car? hp, torque, vehicle weight, and tire size all dictate weather or not you should upgrade to a 934. although I have seen 500 hp v8 combos in lighter (2200) lb. cars get beat on with 930s and not have any issues.

Nothing yet. Picking up a bare frame Saturday. Using an S/C 3800 with the stock auto trans. About 300-325 hp. This car is a beam car that I’m wanting to convert to long travel. I’d say 1700 pounds or less on the weight

Yes. Thinking 5x5 arms with the CV’s that will give the most angle. And absolutely on limit straps

Based on what you've said, lately, on your HP and travel, I'd say that you are on the right track.

I've never tried them but these guys are out of Australia and make custom joints that get 35 degrees. They look wider than standard cv joints so that would need to be taken inton consideration
