914 with a ride height 1.5" shorter on the passenger side at the wheel well.
Does that rhyme? New springs and the problem is solved right? 100-140 lb? Are there a number of different manufacturers that make springs that happen to be the correct size and I should just poke around or is there a preferred manufacturer (or un-preferred). Also, and in addition, I happen to have a brand-spankin' new set of Koni Yellows that came with the '71, never installed. Is there any difference from the '71 to the '74 as far as the rear shocks go? Gracias in advance Chicos and Chicas, |

did you have the rear up in the air this past winter???
If so, possibly one of the springs is not sitting in the perch correctly... jack it up and see if they are sitting in the perch the right way both top and bottom. BTDT. As far as springs go, you need the same outer diameter, so PP has those. the shocks should be the same. Rich |
