I'm a noobie to the 914 but not to working on Air Cooled vehicles. Are replacement springs the only way to fix the sagging rear problem?
The car already rides kind of rough but I'd like a better height in the rear and a lower agressive stance in the front, while making it a smoother ride without the roll when cornering. Any suggestions? |

Hmmm, Yeah, I'm not looking for low low. I just want the Wheel wells at the top of the tire. Right now my rear is lower than that. The front is about an inch above the top of the tires. I'd rather have it just a little lower than the top of the tire. I have stock size tires right now but I want to look at wider replacements without going low profile.
Just want the aggressive leaning forward stance without the offsetting the front and rear rims. this is just the start. I can see it now, this car is going to occupy a great deal of my weekends from now on. Attached image(s)
