Restore your factory ride quality with new rubber bushings for the front of your 914.

If you're on a budget, this is the best bushing for your primarlily street driven 914. I tend to use the "Pareto principle" these days to determine which bushings I use on my cars:

80% Street 20% Track - The new rubber systems are the ones to go with.

80% Track 20% Street - Use a solid bushing that will afford better suspension geometry for track.

With the advent of new rubber for these cars, this is my first recommendation.

Current price = $40.00 plus $5.00 expedited shipping via USPS Small Flat Rate Box to anywhere in the ConUS. European orders welcome. Shipping will be calculate using your destination from 84092 usinf the www.usps.com site. Verify that they will use Small Flat Rate Boxes to your country.

Nice! and I commend their simple and direct install video.
What about the Rears?

Any experience with these, on road, for any length of time?

I'm not showing anything available for the rears from my supplier.

I don't have any feedback on long term wear etc. I do have a call into one of my friends with a trick 911 who installed these back in 2008. I'll let you know what I hear back.

Not much info but, there was a thread on DDK about these:

For street rubber there are basically two choices, these at $40.00 shipped and the Elephant product at $225.00 (probably around $235.20 shipped). We sell them both.

Again, the reason I underlined "on a budget" is because I think these are the best street alternative for those not wanting to spend $235.00

PayPal orders on the site will get the shipping refund on the first day usually. CC orders need a day to process before I can issue the shipping refund.

Bottom line, select the closest shipping amount and you'll get a credit so your order is $45.00 even. Shopping cart woes.
