Mine are heim jointed also
bolt in allows them to be easily pulled for motor drops you can triangulate inboard with bolt in (which blocks the tin work on a 4 cylinder) I have 1 set in my 4 cylinder car which were installed around 1990 after I ripped my suspension console out for the 2nd time on a track only car running 205 tires. I have another set in my -6 I have a 914 fab shop here locally that builds these for all of its cars. I helped install and it was really nice to have something that fit perfectly and was tweeked and designed to fit simply. I would recommend anyone tracking a car to check the outer swingarm pivot bolt (22mm) regularly. when they come loose not only do they oval the ear, but they contribute to ripping the console out. I used to have to tighten mine on a daily basis prior to the bars being installed in 1990-ish. have never had to tighten them since. I'd suggest checking this bolt because if it is working loose then it is a sign that you definitely need the brace. picture of mine are in my vintage thread in my signature brant |
