I used the Elephant racing rubber bushing kits on both the front and rear of our 914s. They are nice. The ride isn't as harsh as the delrin, and you don't need zerk fittings either.

QUOTE(jkb944t @ Mar 30 2016, 08:26 AM)  QUOTE(jack20 @ Mar 29 2016, 10:03 PM) Thanks everybody. I was able to completely strip the rear end. Trailing arms, etc go to powder coating tomorrow. I realize that re - alignment will be necessary. I did the entire front end last month and plan to take it in for a four wheel alignment once I put the rear back in. I'll be replacing the bushings with a new set from PMB who also did all my calipers. I need to add 2 zerk fittings to each trailing arm. If anyone has done this I'd like to know where you installed them in the arm. Jack The picture below shows the zerk fittings installed in my rear control arms. The instructions that come with the bushings will tell you how and where to install the fittings. (Edit) The one thing the directions do leave out is that you need to drill the holes with a 7/32 drill and then tap them to 1/4-28. Jeff B Nice job, will you do mine? |
