I'm restoring a 912E, total gut & rebuild. New to this forum, been on the 912 board and several others for a while. I've never worked on an air cooled car engine before, or VW/Porsche of any type, so this has been a real learning process. Been lurking here for a while, figured it was time to post. I've been on 912BBS since 2011, for those interested, this link goes back to day 1. http://www.912bbs.org/vb/showthread.php?43391-770-Update

R&R'd the steering rack and front cross member today, things are coming along! Here is a before & after. Details are on the main build thread. Also test fit the sachs/Boge strut inserts, fit perfectly. Will be cleaning them up over the next few days.

Replacement of the bushings is easy and should be done if you haven'r already been there. If the torsion bars have the coating warn away be sure to polish the bars to remove any grooves or corrosion and re-coat. |
