Struts And Shock Absorbers |
One of the most important elements of your complete suspension package are shock absorbers. Pelican Parts offers several varieties to suit your needs.
NOTE: All shocks are priced per each and sold INDIVIDUALLY. |
|
| Bilstein Struts and Shock Asorbers |
| Bilstein struts are the recommended choice by Pelican Parts, and are what Tom and Wayne use personally in their cars. The Bilsteins are a great performance shock absorber, and will give you a tighter feel over the stock units. An all-around durable shock, the Bilstein shock absorbers should last the life of your 914. |

Transmission Mounts  |
| We have never seen a set of original transmission mounts that are not cracked. Worn mounts will cause sloppy shifting, and also cause the drivetrain to shift when accelerating. Replacement is an easy job and can be performed in about an hour. We currently have 3 options for replacing your transmission mounts. The stock mounts offer a good, although expensive solution that will keep your car original. The sport mounts are 911-style motor mounts that are a direct and less expensive substitute for the original mounts (Pelican Recommended). Finally, the solid transmission mounts are super stiff and will not wear out over time. For more info, check out our Pelican Technical Article, 914 Shifting Improvements. |
