Call up Russell at Old Speed (www.oldspeed.com) for the front fitment of 944 brakes. It is very easy!

On the rear I have no idea what ride height you want so it is hard to answer that question.

I am running a little bit of the Old Speed kit (modified swing plates) and then the Bus Boys adjustable control arm mounts. The Bus Boys clamps are the only way to go in my opinion. T1 IRS arms with 944 stub axles, Thing output flanges on the tranny, SAW floating axles, and T2 CVs.

With my setup I am staying at stock hieght and running 15" Phone Dials. No problem getting the wheels off the rear. But with Turbo brakes you need at least 16" wheels... If you drop it expect tire removal issues.

My issue now is upper shock mounting brackets... Grrr!

Good Luck,
