Default What does the X74 suspension consist of?

Hey,

I tried to search but with no luck!

Exactly what is replaced or changed when you have a X74 exclusive suspension sport chassi?

Btw, the car is a -03 Carrera 4 coupe!

Thank in advance!

Factory X74 retrofit lowers the P96 40mm in the front and 30mm in the rear.

The kit comes with pre-assembled struts for front and rear (shown).
The package also includes the reinforcement parts and the front and rear stabilizers bars with 2x 2 bushes.(not shown)

FYI.....Gert has these on sale at Carnewal.

No, you can not adjust the height on the OEM suspensions (RoW M030, X73, X74).

OK, I see, thanks for the info!

Is the sway bars changed as well, what are the "bushes" that Carnewal does mention in their description of the X74 kit?

Thanks again!

I believe the "beefed up" sway bars were part of the whole package. Can anyone else confirm? I think the site meant "bushings" instead of "bushes."

Anyone on the sway bar issue?

"Bushes" sound a bit to kinky, even for a P-car Exactly which/how many bushings are changed?

TIA!

All your sway bar bushings front and back, to accomodate the increase in size.
