I need advice and comments on what rear springs and shocks to use on my 914-sixer. I have a low rear end and the setup I have been using does not raise the rear end up to a normal level. At the wheel arches, the measurements are about 23.25 and it is to low thus possible exposure to the 3.2 engine and oil lines, etc.
I am using 140# springs on Koni Reds and am thinking the shock is too short to give me something back to a normal ride. The Koni Reds where used on an adjustable perch with 180# springs and they did provide the same level ride. Need to know what others are using for springs and shocks along with any advice. Thanks, Steve |
