Default Fitting front 993 struts on a 964

Hi all,

I've read that I can fit a 993 shock on a 964, and that the only major difference is the mounting holes on the bottom of the strut. The 993 uses a 12mm top and 14mm bottom, while the 964 uses a 12mm top and bottom.

I saw a forum on pelican where someone used spacers/bushings to fill the gap from the 14mm down to the 12mm hole. They said that the bushings came from rothsport, but rothsport doesn't have them.

I assume they're flanged bushings with a 14mm outside diameter and 12mm inside diameter. I just don't know how long (or short) they should be.

Does anyone have an idea where I could source these bushings?

Thanks in advance!

Skylar
