My adventures in installing the front sway bar reinforcement. My welding skills are a bit rusty. We noticed mounts for the front bar looked a little weird. It didn't take long to find they original mounts had cracked. Welded up the original mounting plate and then went ahead with the doubler.

That should work!
BTW, I once had the same magnetic circles for a previous 914 that my wife and I outcrossed and time-trialed. I ran 73 (it was a 1973) and my wife ran 74. |

It won't break there again, but it will someplace else! I've reinforced the rear, inner trailing arm ear and then ripped out the spot welds on my RSR Teflon bushings. I cracked near the emergency brake (who hasn't), so put in the longitudinal reinforcements. Now I finally broke something on the front of the car. Got front, middle, and rear now!
