944 Spring Plate Differences

[yetibone]

As far as I could tell T151, that is correct. I just checked and compared some parts I have in the basement. Steel arms will not work with spring plates for aluminum arms, and aluminum arms will not work with spring plates for steel arms. The control arm-to-spring plate bolt patterns are different.

944 steel arms have the same spring plate bolt pattern as stock VW. 944 aluminum arms (wide, or narrow) have a different bolt pattern that doesn't match the spring plates on VW Type I's, Porsche 924's, or 944's with 8 valve, normally asperated engines.
