Hello together,
I bought what was supposed top be a complete front sway bar for my 914. As the tank is out, that would be a great time to mount it! But what I have is pretty strange, with welded screws instead of welded nuts: (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/www.thesamba.com-24690-1643118779.1.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/www.thesamba.com-24690-1643118780.2.jpg) Is it then supposed to be welded like that, or from the inside, or it just doesn't work on the 914? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/www.thesamba.com-24690-1643118780.3.jpg) Thanks! Antoine |

Tack weld the inner plate in place once everything is set and installed correctly.
The fender well is thin sheet metal and if you don't hit all the hole centers in true position then the plate will oval out and the fender well will eventually tear. Lots of threads on this install. I'd do like was suggested.....tack weld nuts in place and forget the studs and welding the backing place in place. |
