Advice for torsion bar / spring setup and 9product spring plate bushing installation

[florent78]

Hi

I have a "funny" setup on my 924 turbo:
front and rear from a 968

so for the front I rebuild the suspension using H&R spring
29875 VA (sport model)
regarding the original 160 lbs I can imagine +20% so arround 200 lbs with H&R


for the rear I have 26mm torsion bar
regarding other post it seems 26mm fit well with 200 lbs front spring

do you agree ?


9products:
I bought a set of spring plate bushing from 9products
it's not rubber but kind of hard plastic / polygraphite I think


How do you install them ? do I need to glue ?
I see some post and guys need to sand them to adjust the diameter and fit properly

I would appreciate some advice

thanks

i have the 200# front springs with 26mm torsion bars and i think it's great, very sharp handling but i would NOT go any stiffer for a street car as it is not very forgiving of pot holes and rough surfaces.

i replaced all my bushings with new rubber so if you use the plastic ones your ride may be a little harder.
