    What EXACT part number can you find in the suspension of a 1964 911 that you also find in the suspension of a Boxster?

    narrow the search...

    Is it a suspension component or an obscure piece of 900/999 harware??

    Negative!

    Final clue. . . it performs a slightly different function in the SWB car than in the 911. . . but it's the same part number, which is a supercede from the SWB number.
