I am looking to finish up my suspension, so I figured to check if there is any used parts for sale before I buy new.

Looking for:

Torsion Bars 28 or 29mm

Strut Brace

AC delete Kit

Any other suspension or weight saving items let me know what you have.

 

funny, I have sold all of those things in the last few months.

I can sell you a cut off wheel, that is great for weight savings.

 

I have 350lb springs. Never installed. $75 shipped to lower 48. Michael

 

I have the sways and torsion bars off the '89 S2 I'm parting out. Don't know if this is an upgrade for you.
I also have several sets of Hypercoil springs in various rates for a coil over application.

 

Will those fit on "hacksaw" front koni's if so will they lower the car?

 

I dont have coil overs but how much for the sways, can I have the price for the front only and both together?

 

Sending PM

 

Try www.klaindustries.net if you want a good affordable strut brace. Also check out there upper strut mounts which are a great bargain at $219/pair and they will help to stiffen up your upgraded suspension you are trying to shoot for. He also used to sell rear coil-over shocks that were adjustable (you can call and ask him if he still can get them); I used them in my 944S2 and they prevented me from having to mess with the PITA of torsion bars.

Good luck with the upgrades!

 

Don't waste your money on the expensive a/c delete bracket.

I did this and it works great.

I have some pics somewhere on my blog at kevingosselin.blogspot.com

 

Thanks I have seen that before but forgot where at. Book marked it and will keep it in mind.

 

Didn't that fail on someone before?

 

My 2cents ; if you stiffen the front end, remember to do something with the rear end or you'll end up having too much oversteer or understeer

 

If your a/c delete bracket fails, you made a jenky bracket. There is not much torque on an alternator belt. So, if you make it correct, with the right amount of washers so everything tightens up there is no issue.

And make sure to tension belt correctly. I needed to wedge a large screwdriver inbetween alternator and engine from below to get enough tension. You can't get it from above with just your hands.

I used a toothed bracket and bolt from an early 90's Jetta. Audis use something similar. And it is rock solid. It does not need to be as stout as something that can handle the clutch kicking in on an A/C compressor.

 

Do you mean stiffen the chassis? I don't think there is a way to.

 

No he meant stiffening the front suspension.

Saying that you need to improve (stiffen) the rear suspension in conjunction with the front.
