Aluminum 968 Torque Tube???
Does anyone make such a beast???
Looking for a replacement since the one in the 968 failed
I know someone use to build one for 944s & 951s, but can't find that info either
TIA

Maybe Constantine at Black Sea R&D would have an idea about the aluminum - considering his business is specifically rebuilds of 924/944/968/926 torque tubes? I've never spoken with them personally, but I've seen posts about their product on a couple of forums and they're generally highly regarded.

No, I didn't miss anything, Gene & I have traded stuff over the years & he was very clear that it is a stock part.
We have a call into them, waiting for a estimate on a rebuild.
Looks like the no ones offers an aluminum one for a 968 (sad since Vetts have em
)
Yes sir.. Any idea on the type of driving was done (cab, street cruising, coupe with coil overs, track, little old lady, ect
)

no offense, but the aluminum tt concept is not a great idea, imo.
the steel tt is and integral part of the car's design for safety in the event of a front end crash.
