EvilC - thanks. I had not yet considered a 924S or 944 as a source. I will look into that suggestion. My garage is not that well equiped nor is my mind or hands. I do have a couple of shops and friends who can assist with the fabrication. My intial thoughts were to limit this type of work and to buy good quality bolt on parts. I will have to study your response in depth as I can't visualise everything you indicate. I am happy enough to pursue your suggestion especially as you seem to indicate that the quality of P parts sourced in this manner might be just as cost effective as, say, Kerscher parts on balance. What must be factored in though is the cost of having someone fabricate on my behalf.

I think that I could use a good primer on "suspensions". As I say I shall have to review your post in depth and google many of the terms and words that I don't yet know.

Cheers!
