Hi Gang,

While the front suspension seems to be a breeze (bolt on a 911 set-up), I was wondering if anyone would be interested in a turn key (bolt them on) rear conversion?

Kit would contain:

2 Control Arms - Bead blasted to bare metal. Checked for straightness. Repainted with POR-15.
2 New Wheel Bearings
2 Rebossed and drilled 5-lug Hubs. Factory 45mm Studs. Set in the new wheel bearings.

I was thinking $450 plus your loaded/usable control arms as cores (control arms and hubs).

So for $450 you have basically "brand new" control arms, bearings and 5-lug hubs ready to go. You'd have to buy 914-6 rotors.

Doable? Anything I'm missing? You could add items at will (Mueller bearings, Box kits etc...).

Thoughts?

By rebossed, do you mean surfaced?
Yes. Sorry wrong terminology.

Any thoughts of doind the conversion with 911 ebrakes?


Need to source the 911 e-brakes. They probably wouldn't be cheap and cabling would be up to the buyer. I'm doing mine with a 911 center mounted e-brake handle so I'm not sure how the other cables would work. I could do them if I had the parts though... pretty straight forward.

How about just drilling the hubs for 5-bolt and 4-bolt VW/honda pattern?


Hubs could be drilled any way you'd like I would imagine.
