Hello All,
I’m wondering if someone may be able to help me.
I am currently in the process of building up the rear torsion beam from a pile of parts. I have 25.5 T-Bars with aluminium trailing arms. Both the Porsche workshop manual and Haynes list angular values for the spring strut angle setting position i.e.
944 T M030 = 18º
968 Coupe = 18º
968 CS = 14º
968 CS M030 = 9º
My question is, does anybody know the reference feature on the T-Bar assembly from which these angles are taken????
I should really have marked things up better before taking it all apart
. However, lots of plating and powder coating later I am now looking for some sort reference to start from.
Thanks in advance,
Jonny

i referenced mine from the curved torque supports that hang above the rear axels. Not sure if someone could measure from there for you. One spline moves the rear end quite a bit.

What kind of car is this for, 951 or 944, M030 or stock, etc?
If you are looking for a stock setup on a 951, I can help you, or even if you are going M030 torsion bars there.
Cheers,
Keith
