Hey all,
After finally getting back to the states I had a chance to start going through my To Do list for the teener. Well that list just got allot longer (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif) THe whole front end is shot and will need a bunch of work. Anyone willing to discuss options? Replace what's there or swap out the front end? Also any tips on dropping the front end? I figure that it's easier to work on the suspension when it's out from under the car. So 2 ball joints 2 tierod ends and struts at a minimum. Yikes Attached thumbnail(s) |

Don't forget the bigger better brake option for the 3.5" spacing.
Also, the splines for the torsion bars are different for the 911 giving you more options. You could just get those expensive shock/struts that come with the spindles. Then you would just have to source the rotors, breaks and bearings. Its only money (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) I have a911 front end with the 3" spacing. It was off of a 70, but it gave me vented front rotors. |
