993 GT2 Steering Knuckle on AWD cars?
I am interested in replacing my "steering knuckle" (what I have always called the wheel carrier -- its the thing you press the wheel bearing into) on my 95 C4 with the GT2 part (993-341-157-81). I am worried that since the GT2 was a RWD car, that these wheel carriers cannot accept a driveshaft. Anyone know if that is the case, or will these work with the AWD cars just fine? Thx!
p.s. I know that I will need newer GT2 tie-rods when upgrading to these parts.

And the bearing thing is pretty moot, as I can't imagine why anyone would reuse press fit bearings. Absent not having a spare during an endurance race or something, and needing to get the car back on track at nearly any cost.
