(IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Anyone have suggestions as to emergency brake setup(s) after having upgraded your 914 to 911 suspension and brakes? This list is the greatest~! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

i dont think you can put 911 suspension on the rear of a 914 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol2.gif) do you mean a 5 lug conversion w/ 911 brakes?
if so... someone suggested an inboard brake at 1 time....other wise, yur hosed :gilloutine: in the vw sandrail world, they have something where you depress the brakepedal, and then push this inline valve, and it keeps the pressure in the brake system (IMG:style_emoticons/default/MDB2.gif) |

It is possible to install the 911 rear brake shoe assembly on a 914 trailing arm if you have converted to Carrera brake rotors and calipers. You'll need to have custom cables made (no big deal), and perhaps fabricate a passage in your control arms for the cables, depending on how you mount the shoe assembly. Check out this thread on the Pelican board:
