    What size Torsion Bars?

    Does anyone here know the stock size front torsion bar for an 87 911?
    Many Thanks,

    The front T-bars are the same size as the LWB early cars--18.8mm. The rears have changed over the years, but the fronts have remained the same from '69-89, I believe. The early SWB cars had 18mm front bars.
