for rear:
I have all this parts except 5, but I think there is some aftermarket similar, not ?
Then I need to buy u-bolts for fix middle of swaybar.
for front:
I have all bolts except vertical bars for fix middle of swaybar to chassis. _________________ Porsche 924 2.0 na 125hp (1979) euro

Maybe share a picture of your frame between the steering rack and the radiator so we can show you where they go?
Its pretty obvious on mine, but maybe your car doesn't have them, in which case you'll get to add them somehow. _________________ Stefan

Don't loosen the other fasteners, just the ones you have to replace and the adjustment should stay. _________________ Stefan

I completed installation of sway bar early version 1979.
For rear I replaced eccentric bolts with longer eccentric bolts and camber don't change. For fix sway to chassis I used two resistant u-bolt .
For front the bolts for fix sway are on chassis on early 924. For fix sway on swinging arm, standard 924 have no hole for insert sway supports, then I installed on swinging arm two resistant metal plates with a hole at the end.
Tomorrow I try to post my photos.
I test my car and it 's very improved! The roll is almost non-existent and it seems to have sport shock absorbers.
In future the next step could be lower car 20mm with sport springs and standard shocks. _________________ Porsche 924 2.0 na 125hp (1979) euro

Just a thought, definitely post some pics of your swap.
As you might have noticed, sometimes people do swaps and stuff and don't document it well. Then it's hard for newcomers to do the same swap and it pisses other people off when you ask a million questions about what works and what doesn't. |

Sure! Today I publish my photos, it can be useful for install sway bar in early 924, on the forum I have not found exact pictures and description.
If I would like install lowering spring only 20mm I have to regulate camber or with this small change the setting of camber remains in permitted tolerance? _________________ Porsche 924 2.0 na 125hp (1979) euro

Sway Bars early version '77 - '79:
Front installation:
my personal solution for fix sides of sway bars, because I have not swinging arm for install sway:
for fix middle of sway there are two long bolts on chassis:
Rear:
replace eccentric bolts with longer eccentric bolts:
buy a resistant u-bolt for fix to chassis and other metallic plates for fix sway to u-bolts:

Buy new front a arms with the mount!!! Don't use that shit to mount the sway bar!!!
Rear bar need to sit above exhaust, rotate the torsion bar mounts up and move the mounts out to the next flat section of the bar _________________ 1981 ROW 924 Turbo -

That front solution will rattle and break within 5km.
The rear solution might actually last a bit more.
Get front a-arms with the right mounts, do a good job securing the upper mounts to the chassis.
Get the complete rear assy from another 924 with sway bars and replace it into your car.
