What size are the snaprings for the front 30mm swaybar? (I cannot get a good messurement)

 

What snaprings?

 

Yeah, snaprings?

 

I was talking to jason yesterday and he said there was supposta be snaprings on the front swaybar (and there is clearly a spot for snaprings). I have never had any on my car so I guess it might be something they decided they didn't need?

 

C-clips is another name.

Not sure how to tell the size on those, What are you measuring and I can check mine.

The clips came with the MO30 sways I bought from Paragon.

 

This is for what size I need and its for 30mm bar

 

Are you looking for the OD of the snap ring groove ?

 

Yes (so I can buy the snaprings) lol!

 

I will measure this evening for you.

Like I said I was not sure how the ring sizes come, 1/2, 1/4 or #1 #2 or M8, M10 that why I asked what measurement your looking for.

 

Is that just an M030 thing? I've never seen any snaprings or grooves for them on my old 944 bars, the 951 bars I put on that car, of the bars on the S2.

 

Yeah, the c-clip is only on the 30mm front bar of the 968 MO30 from what I can tell. Not sure why they put this on the 30mm bar and not the others. I am sure it is there so the bar end does not pull out of the drop link, but the bar has the same length end as a regular S2 bar, and that did not need any retention clip.

This must be the most knowledgable 944 forum on the internet!

 

The factory part number is N 012 449 1. It also says "19" under the part number in the PET catalog. It will be a metric part and its possible that the 19 is referring to 19mm ID, but you need to check that.

Any reason that you dont want to buy it through a dealer or through paragon? Trying to get it cheaper or quicker than through those sources?

 

yes...just an m030 thing and they are Circlips....Snaprings...LOL

 

Whatever... (lol)
