Can anyone give me some info on installing this 911/19mm sway bar (pics attached)?
It's going on a 1971 914 Porsche. The undercarrage has a mounting frame for this Bar with holes cut out. Do I need to do anything else extra and what would I need to purchase? Anything tips and how easy is this installation?
Thanks for any help.

You need an aluminum cross beam, sway bar bushings and brackets on the control arms and the splash pan that covers the sway bar and steering rack. The sway bar brackets for the control arms are welded on and I have not seen them sold separately but I have not looked. Most 914s that have an under body sway bar (instead of a thru body sway bar) have had a complete 911 frt suspension installed. Late (74-on?) 911 frt control arms have the brackets welded on, none of the 914 control arms came with sway bar brackets for an under body bar.
