SWB Front Suspesion Swap to Front LWB

Up to what year can I directly bolt on a complete front suspension to my 66 912 front suspension, the only thread I found is this one.

Early SWB 911/912 front suspension swap

Can I go up to Mid 80's?

Depends on your front strut towers.

Do you have the adjustable kind, or the fixed tops like they did until '66.

If they are adjustable you should be able to use parts up till '89.

I have Carrera front parts on my '66 912, but I grafted in the adjustable towers.

SWB upper strut mounts ??

Yes, any complete suspension up to '89 will fit a SWB, regardless if fixed top or adjustable.
