DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Hello I’m a new member to ddk I’m restoring a 1970 911 it has borg struts without tortion bars any advice which way to go with the best way to build a decent front suspension! Many thanks adrian

Hi Adrian
Welcome to DDK, Boge struts without torsion bars sounds interesting. Do you mean it has coil over springs or are the torsion bars missing? A photo would answer a lot of questions, can you post one?

Your car would have had hydropneumatic front suspension. All 69-72 E’s were delivered that way from new I think. No torsion bars.

If your car still has the original hydro-pneumatic suspension the main problem will be non-availability of any any of the associated parts.

The vast majority of 911 models so equipped were converted to the standard torsion bar set-up many years ago.

You are going to need a pair of A-arms, a pair of torsion bars, a pair of struts & a front crossmember at the very least.

The Factory used to offer a conversion package 'back in the day' which included those parts:

Thanks for your help everyone most helpful looking a bit expensive though
