Here is the rear truss bar as found on our 914-6. Does anyone recognize it? I poked around the Google machine, but didn't find much.

Any gotchas for removing it? I'm putting the car back very close to stock and AFAIK, they didn't come with these. I don't see that it's welded anywhere.

I assume now would be a good time to replace the shocks it I were going to do that.
