Need Opinion fellow teeners, 68 912 front strut and rear suspension (complete hubs, rotors & calipers) Options

[ndfrigi]

Hi teeners,

I'm planning of buying a 68 912 front and rear suspension. Can I use the strut, hubs, calipers and rotors for a 75 914 for my 5 lug conversion and rear suspension also has the hub, calipers and rotors. Is it the same as early 911 parts?

Please give me your usual support/help to a fellow teener.

Thanks and God Bless!

You have to check if the fronts are solid or vented rotors, you don't want them if solid rotors.
If vented they will work but it has 3 inch spacing, early or Alfa calipers.
You would also have to replace your ball joints with early ones.

Rears are really not worth it, the hubs "may" work, but I'm not sure on those.

Thanks Mark for responding!
In regards to front, it has struts with inserts, calipers and rotors (if rotor is bad I can just get new one) can I just get new ball joint and just swap it to the original 914 parts?
For the rears, from 912 parts I can only use the hub, rotors and calipers to replace also the 914 parts? And do I need a different cv axle?

Thanks again!
