What can you do when Part are NLA

[rothaus]

I need this part Banjo Bolt p/n 91435553400

In the parts diagram it is listed but it is no longer available. This part is messed up and I need a new one. Where can I find one?

Looks like I have to make one.

maybe ask here. need a better description. where does it go? year and model?

There are several Porsche wrecking yards which carry just about everything you could dream up. Be very specific about the condition. Then there are many independently owned Porsche shops where the owners tend to have their own stock of hard to find parts - so it pays to make and stay good friends and patronize your local expert.

Looks like a banjo bolt with a tapped end for a brake line .

That is the same part 91435553400, but you cannot order it, see image.

If it was from a 911 master cylinder I know I have an extra one it isn't pretty but it should work, I just have to find it.

Yes, we've become like the 356 people...

shuffling along in our shabby clothes looking for the poorest examples to strip and cannibalize to keep our better examples running -- all the while depleting the stock of cars...

These types of fittings become NLA thru certain channels, but many times are still being made or at least in stock in a specialty shop. After trying Stoddards, try a specialty shop; one that works on older brakes and truck brakes.

We have one here in Long Beach called C. H. Topping that does it all. Old Packards to the very Datsun shown here. I saw it there in person.

You might give them a call as a last resort. http://www.chtopping.com/Home/index.html
