Hello, my name is Ivan Starodub, im located in Lviv, Ukrainne (Eastern Europe)
Have bought a CAR a week ago. VIN 9249101677
I need to replace front wheel bearings and this thing:
 left and right, i don't know how they are called(would anybody body enlighten me?)
I would like to know which parts can be used insted of Porsche parts, preferably European cars, as it's easier to get those.
Thank You very much
I am really happy that i am able to join ur community |

Those are sway bar 'drop links' I think.
Welcome to the board!

Yes, sway bar "drop-links" or "end-links" - and you'd either need to repair the ones you have, or buy new - I'm 99.99% sure they're 924-specific...

click the "924 FAQ (Technical)" link at the top of the page to find a partial list of non-Porsche parts that can be used.
As the suspension is all VW then bearings for a VW Golf (front) or Beetle (rear) of the same year as your car (a Euro 1979) is what you are looking for.
