My BB does not have a front tow hook or loop, evidently it was sacrificed when the A/C was installed in 74. I would really like to put a ring on the front somewhere and the front subframe mounting point seems to be a great spot for this.
I've seen pictures of 914 track cars with a loop at that spot. anyone out there know where to source one of these? And then, can I just remove the subframe bolts to mount the ring without the torsion bar ruining the day? |

yes you can do that - just look on any site that sells racing parts - most race venues require them - usually they will be RED - scca requires a 2" loop
- you could just buy a stock type that almost fits, then cut a U into it & drill 2 holes to mount it at the front susp point where the torsion bar connects - OR buy the ones that fit 911-914 \ picture of type that Rennline sold - maybe still does  QUOTE(robkammer @ Apr 29 2021, 04:49 PM)  I would really like to put a ring on the front somewhere and the front subframe mounting point seems to be a great spot for this.
