Does anyone sell part for Weltmeister anti sway bars?
Bushings or bearings specifically.

I bought some hard bushings already installed in the holders with zerks for the front a arms on ebay probably from someone who didn't like them. I also saw some weltmeister new parts on pelican I think.

Weltmeister is a part of Automotion, now Performance Products. They had some ideas for parts that weren't available, contracted to have them made, and sell them to retail customers and to other parts sellers.

What I want/need is the bushing that fits in the anti-sway bar housing...two of them.
I can have them made.
I can possibly get bearings.
I can do alot of things.

I want to know if I can make one call and buy the same ones that lasted 8 years...crappy though they may be...its just simple and takes less time...lol

What do I need to tell you to get the right bushings?
Can I get something better (bronze or bearings)

I'll vouch for Mark and John at GPR. Great guys


btw, hey Steve

GPR? Good prices, good service, and 914 guys through and through.
I don't know why you'd want to shop there.
Hi Ben! You should bring your car out to the CCCR PCA event at Buttonwillow this May. Cheap track time.

Posted by: dw914er Apr 8 2009, 11:03 PM

How much? I'm taking it out to the WCR's streets of willow track day (can't beat like 100 bucks for an entire weekend, which means like 40 dollar track day). Also, are they gonna hate on me on not renewing my pca membership, and or if I took my rsx?

why not machine your own? If you got the measurements and an old sample you could make your own pretty easily on a lathe

Posted by: r_towle Apr 10 2009, 08:14 PM

If I had a lathe I would.
I will call GPR and buy them.
Simple...easy peasy.

I do a lot of PCA autox up here and if you show up in a porsche they don't bother asking for your PCA card. Why would you do a track day in the RSX? I've done that in my type S, that's why I own the 914 I do. I also have a blank associate member card so I could probably let you use it, if they decide to be pricks. This is, of course, assuming that I'm going. Lets hope I get the internship I interviewed for today.
