Default H&R Rear sway bar for sale - 993

I have a perfect H&R rear sway bar (adjustable, part number 71953) that was on my 1997 Carrera S for less than 6 months. It includes the H&R bushings and is designed to reuse the existing end links. Please feel free to go to www.hrsprings.com to check possible fitment on other Porsche models. New price was $299.00 and I am asking $150 USD plus shipping. The sway bar is located in Toronto, Ontario (Canada) and I can acceot Paypal.

Please feel free to email me directly at alon.gat@psionteklogix.com or simply reply to this post.

Oh, reason for selling? I was in a bad front collision this past weekend and the car will not be repairable. It sustained no damage to the rear and did not affect this sway bar.

Thanks all.

I'm working on it. There is no way that it's getting fixed.

Alon, very sorry to hear about your accident. I know how much effort you put into modding the car. Hope everything gets worked out with the ins. co & you can get another one soon!

Alon,

that's terrrible! I'm glad you are (seem to be) OK.

Are you parting out any other goodies (short shift, wheels, etc)?

Thanks guys. Yeah, I'm ok, just some burns on my hand from the airbag and a dent in my forehead from my Blackberry flying at me from being clipped onto the sun visor. I can't say enough about the strength of this car's chassis. It sacrificed itself so I can see another day.

I've removed my suspension and wheels (what's left of the wheels) and my next spes are to settle with insurance and find a viable replacement. Good thing that winter is around the corner for us in Toronto as I would have been putting it away for storage anyday now. I will have all winter for car shopping (yes, more than likely another 993 variant).

Also sorry to hear of this: other than not ducking the blackberry, glad you came out fine.
If your ins. co. provides a first right of buyback, it could be very worthwhile to purchase the chassis - especially if you stay with a 993 ... I used last winter to strip such a car, and built up the spares inventory .

Alon, sorry to hear about that - that was a beautiful car. I guess you can start looking for a 993 TT now

Glad to hear you are okay.

Ive often wondered if my airbag would deploy in an accident (due to its age). I guess you found out that it was there for you! Do you think the blackberry was projected due to the airbag? I have seen people with knicknacks right above their airbag covers - I just shake my head and move on!

Bummer. At least you are OK.

If anything, dealing with the insurance company may hurt you more than the wreck!
