Default Video: Converting the late 944 strut to Bilstein shocks

Hi,

The video gives you a step by step tutorial how to convert a late Porsche 944 with the pressed Fichtel & Sachs shocks to Bilstein cartridges. In order to do this, the orignal strut has to be cut and a new sleeve with thread has to be welt in the strut.



The video has a German soundtrack, but English subtitles are added to YouTube. If you don't see them by defaut, watch the video directly at YouTube and press the subtitle button below the frame.

Enjoy it,

Jürgen
