Zen, drop Rob at www.dcauto.com a line, he had a stack of torsion bars at his place, should have just what you need.

Didn't have time to get it installed before the event, but it will be ready for the next one in Dec.

I'll be sure to post some.

Zen,
If I can get enough ducks in a row I'll be headed there Saturday. I'll be glad to pick some bars up for you.

sorry guys. my reviewing postings has been shotgun method at best. yeti, thanks for the offer, but i think my ducks died due to lack of care and feeding. randy, any idea how much stiffer those are than stock VW? seems like they could be too stiff.

All good Zen. Rob didn't answer the phone Saturday so I didn't make it there anyway. Weekends are appointment only, so I'm gonna call during the week and set something up for next weekend.

Guys in the gruppe, if you need a used Porsche part, post it here, or shoot me an email by next weekend and I'll look for it next Saturday.

John, got plans on the 30th?
