Post by leedurrant73 »

Hi,

Have a 69t. Thinking of fitting adjustable spring plate. Danske type. Anyone had experience with these?

Quality good and worth doing ?

Thanks

Thanks guys.

I see design 911 do them at the moment for £189 per side. Danske. Any other make I should consider?

Elephant racing are rather pricy.

Thanks Lee

Yeah I noticed that but it states for later model?
Are they ok to use on a 69?
Thanks

I would think the only difference is SWB v LWB. (?)

Yes - they were originally introduced with the SC models I think (maybe slightly earlier) but can be retro-fitted to any LWB model
