Hi , looking to buy parts to convert from 4 lugs wheels to 5 lugs wheels, therefore I need all the components for the front , ie A Arms with torsion bars, front struts, brake components and hub. My car is a 1973 2 liter.
Let me know what you have , must be in very good condition. thanks

If you go with 911 A arms you will have larger 19mm torsion bars. Keep in mind suspension is a system. Any component you add affects the others. If you go with 911 A arms you should go with stiffer than stock rear springs for best handling.
