I know they exist - but I can't find the source.
I need to replace the nylon trunk hinge rollers and I want the metal or bronze replacements. I also need the shoulder bolt for one side. Who has those - I tried searching (Google and 914World) but came up blank. Thanks in advance! |

I'm sure I have a pair ..... Send me a PM with your address in Airplane City.
I don't do rollers anymore ... I install the gas shocks and ditch the stupid torsion bars. |

fwi. swapping them out is simple. open the trunk, slide a 7 or 8mm deepwell socket (i forget which, and 1/4" drive ones work great) over the bar end on the roller. use a long exstension to lever it down,while holding the end down slide the roller on. DON'T release any of the hardware retaining the spring rods.
