One of the first thing I noticed when I picked up my sweet barn find 914 4 years ago was a height difference in the rear (only) - she lists to port by 1/2".
I have the service record from the local Porsche dealer that about 3,000 miles prior to my getting the car, their shop had replaced the left rear trailing arm bushings. In working extensively on my 14 for the last 4 years (my shop has a lift), I can find no cause for the 1/2" height difference in the body at the rear axle center. Car had 60k original miles when I got it, now 63,600. I believe rear spring/shocks are original, and show no issues. Any help would be appreciated as to cause and fix for the list. TIA, GN |

Should say "aft " instead of rear. 50 years since I left the USNavy and I still talk like that.

Should say "aft " instead of rear. 50 years since I left the USNavy and I still talk like that. I bet you still go to the "Head" Damn straight. Port is left starboard is right, red lights are the color of port wine. You don’t expect me to believe that everyone doesn’t say avast when you want something to stop, or that when you change lanes you don’t always make sure that the car you just passed is a abaft the stern bumper? |
