914World.com _ FS/WTB: 914 Parts _ FOUND! - used front shocks in "reasonable" shape

Posted by: jrmdir May 27 2022, 10:19 AM

This may be long shot but if anyone has a set of stock-type front shocks that were functioning when removed for a suspension upgrade please let me know. Bilstein or Koni would be awesome but others (except KYB) could be of interest as well.

Thanks,

Ron

Thanks so much Robert - I can't pass that up and will send you a PM with my info. This is perfect because I just want something to get me through the driving season before beginning a long, full restoration project this winter. If I bought new inserts they would probably be relics by the time it's back on the road smile.gif

Thanks also to the others who took the time to respond. This forum is awesome!

I have them boxed for the last guy that passed and went with a $$ solution, and will open them up and snap a pic and the dimensions for shipping ...Ill be in the garage today and tomorrow finishing a motor swap! Im driving this week end or bust! Ill post back. Do you need any HW with them? Nuts dust covers and such? I think I had it all included? ill see what I have....

Here is a pic of the nuts, covers, bumpers and shocks . I cycled the shocks in and out and good resistance . One seal was wet , perhaps for being upside down? Anyhow ...this is what I have. USPS flat rear box
