QUOTE He doesnt need the spacers he has in place. He has 911 struts so the spacers are not required. When do you use the spacers or not use the spacers? |

Just curious...what parts are wrong? Are there different TTR's? I believe there are different Turbo tie rods. The Turbo cars use a different steering rack than a normal 911. So there are "Turbo" tie rods that are made to be used with a Turbo steering rack. And "Turbo" tie rods made to be used with a non-Turbo steering rack. At least that's what I've read. Feel free to correct if wrong! |

What spacers?
Rack spacers for bump steer? 10mm thick ones? I have them in mine with Turbo Tie rods and 911 struts. I had no problems. It sure looked like his suspension came down a very long way. I don't believe that mine came down that far. |

OK.
There is ONE part number for the 75-89 930 Turbo Tie Rods: 930.347.322.00 The 930 DOES use a different steering rack (but it uses spacers also) The 911's up until 1989 use a 914.347.010.06 steering rack. A 4cyl car with 4 lug struts has to use the spacer or you end up with 3-4 threads in the end of the tie rod (not safe in my book) The 911 struts have a different arm on the strut tube. It can go either way (with or without) depending on whether or not you want bind in full droop lock to lock. If your dont want bind in that "rare" occasion... then pull the spacers out. Funny "914-8" your didnt happen to write that did you ?? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) B |
