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) |

For an adjustable ride to suit your needs, I would strongly suggest Koni.
Stock Boge struts and shocks leave you lacking the performance, and IMHO Bilstiens are just too stiff for a 914. Koni gives you and adjustable range so you can choose what fits your style. This is not a place I would suggest you go a cheap as possible, because you will end up replacing the boges with something stiffer. Never buy KYB...they stink, do a search. https://www.pelicanparts.com/More_Info/KON8...5&DID=39090 |
