I was wondering if a rear radius arm from a 911SC is able to bolt up into an earlier long hood car. I currently have a 69 and was wanting a different more stock looking way to easily lower the rear end. Does the torsion radius arm from a SC have the same bolt pattern as the earlier style, the same spline setup, the same length, etc. I haven't seen much info regarding this "mod" and would be interesting to see if anyone has done it. Thanks

I have personally put a set of 87 Carrera style arms in a 73 E, but have not tried the SC arms...I believe they are the same though. FYI On our car I did install the elephant racing adjustable spring plates and RSR style coil overs.

This is a no brainer bolt-on upgrade. My '71 has SC torsion arms.

Spline change was 1987 with the G50.
