914World.com _ Originality and History _ Are there any differences between 70–76 suspension parts ?

Posted by: Theclassiccarcoroner Apr 9 2016, 07:49 PM

Can anyone tell me if there any differences between 70–76 suspension parts? Same offset?
I have a 74 914 non-rolling shell and I hoping to put on all of the suspension from a 1971 model 914. Is this gonna work?

Same geometry and widths. Front struts may be different in the lower ball joint area. Early cars may have pinch bolt and late cars (73+) for sure have wedge pin bolt to secure to lower ball joint. This will not matter if you swap all the suspension parts straight across to the 74'

Only the early (non-concentric) Pedrini wheels will not fit on later concentric hubs.

Only the 914-6 has wider 911 front width.
