914World.com _ The Paddock _ Strut bars

Posted by: 72914S Jan 2 2011, 05:42 PM

I did a search but failed to find anything on strut bars. I have seen them both front and rear. Anyone running them? and what if any benefits ? pictures would be nice.

try "sway bars" instead

Strut bars are a total waste on a 914.
Up front the top of the bulkhead serves the purpose.
At the rear, the strut towers only have vertical loading from the springs - no side loading at all.

Just was wonderin if they did anything to stiffen the car up. I do have front and rear sway bars already installed.
