Hi all.
Wondering if any Canadians can guide me in the direction of getting specific parts for a '73 1.7L. Looks like I may need to replace the front control arms (both sides) with the bushings - may as well do the front shocks - full suspension (front and rear). I have a mechanic (my brother-in-law) and he's suggesting I get all the parts first and he can put them all in so I am trying to source them out locally rather than ship them from the states. Worst case I will but hoping someone can recommend (for a smooth street ride) which shocks I should go with? I saw this kit at Autoatlanta and wondering if it will give me everything I need minus the control arms ofcourse: http://www.autoatlanta.com/Porsche-914-Sto...-PN-BEK914.html Any guidance would be highly appreciated. Thank you! |

Hi there,
There's Mike's 914s in Colborne, ON. that has a warehouse and a couple of truck trailers full of used parts. PM me and I'll send you his phone number as he doesn't really advertise on the web. He's a nice guy also, as all 914s guys are. As for new parts, Mark Henry which is on this board has a Worldpac account, I don't know if he still offers to go through him for parts. Otherwise, it's still more cost effective to go through all the popular US vendors even with shipping, duty and taxes. The key is to have everything shipped by USPS, all the other big shippers will ding you with brokerage fees which kills the deal. |
