Can someone recommend where to buy replacement shock s and struts I’m looking for the most comfortable ride not knife edge handling Since I’ve gotten back into 914 s I’m seeing coil over rear setups being sold now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/type.gif) Should I be leaning towards that or just replacing the stock stuff ? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stirthepot.gif) And what kinda budget should i plan for ?$ ( I already know I don’t have elephant racing type money $ ) * Attached image(s) ![]() |

Note that the stock springs were in the range of 50-65 lb/in. The 100s, while sold as "replacement stock", are noticeably stiffer. The specs in the factory manuals are kind of odd, but Bruce Stone and I walked through the math needed to frame them as lb/in and it came out to that range. Which agrees with the numbers quoted in "Upfixin der Porsche", which is a good confirmation.
