I hope this is a simple question..
I'm trying to find out what the difference in spline count is on the 914-4 ver 914-6 torsion bars. I have a 1975 914-4 and want to go to 21mm but it seems most suppliers have mixed the 914-4 with the 914-6 and the 6's don't fix on the 4's splines. thank you in advance with your answers..

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) 914 torsion bars have 29 splines, 911 have 30. Ask me how I know... I've been shipped 911 bars TWICE. And they are "sided" so be sure you install them on the correct side of the car. They are stamped in the end with "R" or "L". At least the stock ones are... |
