jtsporsche

i had to do this same thing to my 924S
go to dcauto.com and they have diagrams of everything. it tells you all the bolt sizes that you would need. besides that you need the swaybar, the two drop links, the two center u-brackets and the bushings.

their site is having trouble and wont load


edit nvm its up

krystar

bring 12 14 17 sockets and 17 19 wrenches. i think that's all u need.

V2Rocket

13mm socket with a 6" extension is what youll need for the center mounts. for the droplinks i believe two 13mm box wrenches will do

krystar

hmm i swear i had to use a 17 or 19 wrench for something...

but yea yer right, bring a 13mm socket too. cause alot of things on this car are 13mm

Clint's 944

19mm for the eccentric bolts

V2Rocket

droplinks might be 17s, i dont remember...

why would you even touch the eccentrics?

HJK

Dunno if this helps....

thanks everyone. unfortunately, the guy didnt tell me the car was half buried old growth and in a briar patch. needless to say i didnt get them i did however get 3 script door handles

944'a that came without a rear sway don't have the "arm" for the drop links to bolt on to. I had to do this on my old '86 na.

V2Rocket

oh, interesting

Do you mean the eccentric bolt threaded end to which the rear bar attaches? You will definitely need the eccentric bolts if there was no rear bar previously but everything else should be there. I did this upgrade years ago and the only thing I would recommend is that you use adjustable droplinks instead of OEMs to fine tune the suspension.

That rear sway bar looks as thick as my front sway bar.

I believe it is a Weltmeister bar so it probably is thicker than your front bar.
