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) |

if you are replacing the front a-arm bushings you should replace the ball joints, wheel bearings and tie rods...just get it over with. Its all old.
Removing the a-arm requires removing the ball joint from the strut....so you are right there, a simple process with the a-arm in your hand. Rich |
