sway bar question

Will OEM sway bars off a 89 911 Turbo fit my 83SC? Someone in a nearby club has some for sale.

Yes they will. You need the 86-89 sway bar bushings as well.

This is a good upgrade. I added mine a few weeks ago- the only issue I have is a bit of noise (slight clunking) at low speed stops & driveway aprons. I may need to back off the bolts & retorque now everything has settled in place.

I just did this upgrade a few weeks ago, well worth it but a PITA to get the front one installed.

Agreed on the fronts. I used Porsche Special Tool S10F (Size 10 Foot) to get the bar end to pop into the A-Arm bushing. Many previous posts recommended dropping the A-arm to do this- no way was I up for that.
