Stance: A Little Low in the Rear Options

[Bwingate]

First post here. New to 914's, but I have had a '74 Super Beetle for quite some time, so its the same but different . . . .

Got my new-to-me 1974 on Friday. One of the issues I knew about was that the car sits a little [too] low in the rear. I don't have plates yet, so I could only drive up and down my street a couple of times, but I don't hear any or feel anything funny from the rear and the ride is pretty nice.

Any ideas on where to start to level this or problems I should be looking at regarding the rear end sag?




Thanks,
Bruce

Was watching a vintage German language video on 914/6 the other day, I had no idea what was being said but it was mostly just early 70s video production and advertisement video. It starts with a guy sitting in the car with the roof off waiting for his female companion to clime in - he starts ripping it up thru curves and thru traffic. My first impression was that the front of the car was too high at the nose.... and this was a /6 ! So who knows, but at least it's an easy remedy.

i think i have seen that clip.
its a 4 not a 6.
its nose up and on real skinny 155 tyres.
and..........he does cane it ---- pretty hard.
he looks real square for 1970 but in fact you realise he can drive.
i think he even gets the back out on it.

nose up slows down the spin the backside timing - specially on 155 beetle spec tyres.
lets you actually swing the backside out on a 914?
