So these things are getting old. The newest ones are 41 years old! Of course mileage comes into play. I am not taking into account your rubber bushings have sagged to the point your torsion bars are grinding against the a arm (very common). Let's go with an optimum, best case scenario: no grinding and 130k miles and 41 years old. Do they loose there ability to work through there range of motion as intended? Sag?

I can't imagine sag being a thing on 914s --- too light. Plus they are easy to adjust so you would never really know if the PO did or not.
I know sag is an issue on first gen 4wd Nissan Pathfinders and Hardbodies around 200k miles. But that's not surprising when it's taken into consideration that 2/3rds of their 4000lbs are on the front axle and offroading is hard on suspensions. Even coil springs sag with that kind of use. |
