I have a line on a 69 912 front and rear suspension.
Would this be a viable donor to set a 914 up for 5-lug? Are any of the rear parts applicable, i.e. hubs/axels, calipers? Would Cookie cutter rims fit this set up on a narrow body car? |

semi-hijack: related to hubs, does it matter what hubs you use if you intend on running
solid rotors on say T struts (w/3" calipers)? |

semi-hijack: related to hubs, does it matter what hubs you use if you intend on running solid rotors on say T struts (w/3" calipers)? I have solid rotors, f&r on my conversion car. I used early 70’s hubs, 3” m calipers (from a 912) and T struts. I don’t think 914-4 calipers will work on T struts but I’ve never tried the combo. M calipers won’t work on 914-4 struts so the reverse probably won’t work either. |
