Didn't want to hijack the sway bar thread, so here is MY question looking for advice:
'76 2.0 ...... I have sitting at home waiting to be installed: Bilstein shocks all around, 165 lb springs and 22mm front sway bar (and of course Turbo tie rod kit, new ball joints and soon Elephant A-arm bushings). Have new Falken 195/60-15 tires. Question: Street car only, should I upgrade to larger torsion bars or will stock be o.k. on a non-AX car, but driving in the Rockies......? |

food for thought, i bought a 75 car that came with the 911 front end, didn't know it until i tried to install the 22mm torsion bars, wouldn't fit. there is a one spline difference between the two, went with the 23mm for ax.
ps. no records of that front end being replaced...stick it in the car gunther. |
