914World.com _ FS/WTB: 914 Parts _ SOLD Early 3" 911 Struts housings w/ inserts & 2x 47mm offset 5-lug Hubs

Posted by: RichPugh Mar 19 2019, 08:20 PM

73-76 911 5 lug stuff... 1x 911.341.079.02 & 1x 911.341.080.02 w/ inserts (mileage unknown) and 2x aluminum hubs 901.341.605.3 R plus 10x studs and 2x center caps. I decided to go w/ 3.5" struts and so these will hopefully go to make some 914 owner a lovely 5 lug front end without having to swap brakes.

SOLD

I'm pretty sure they are Bilstein inserts.

Thank, Mark!

I bought the struts from Mark a couple years ago (and the Hubs from Bruce bdstone914) and they've just been sitting collecting dust. Going to 3.5" so someone buy these and enjoy!

Slight clarification... 65-68 MY are different. Best of luck with sale and your progress.

Do you have the spindle nuts and keyed washers? If not I have sets of them.

These are 73-76 911 struts. They are better taper pin type. One of the best struts to use.
Earlier 1969-72 struts were pinch bolt type.
These can be used on any year 914 if the matching taper pin ball joints are used.
Good luck with sale.

Rich,
Your comment below is not accurate.

These use vented 911 rotors. 914 calipers are for solid rotors. They need either M 911 calipers, or Alfa calipers.

Yea, you need “911” brakes for these. But M calipers are what came on the 914-6 and are very available from the 911 guys who move up to 3.5” struts.
