996 C4 Cab suspension refresh
With 118k on the clock on my cab, the suspension is getting pretty tired. I have run a search for a list of suspension overhaul components and recommendations but have come up empty.
Has anyone overhauled their suspension relatively stock and on a budget?
I would like to do a budget overhaul, since this car has a lot of miles and is not really worth investing in a complete Pss10 system or something similar like I have done in my previous pcars.
I am going to send out my struts to be rebuilt by Bilstein, but what other components would you all recommend to update/ freshen? Also, if you have any recommendations regarding sourcing and price for said components, I would appreciate it.
Thanks in advance!

Hey Tom
Not sure if the suspension from a C2 work for you but I have a set with 62k miles sitting in my garage. No issues. Oh, I also have a set of RoW M030 with only 2k miles as well. I will be putting them on the For Sale section soon.
PM if this might fit and are interested...

I replaced my stock suspension last spring with the RoW M030 set up. Came with all new struts, springs, sway bars and bushings. I got the kit from Sunset Porsche and I think it was about $1100 plus installation. Was perfect for me since I don't plan to track it. If tracking is a possibility for you, X73/X74 might be a better way to go, but I understand the kit is beginning to get hard to find.

Thanks for the suggestions. I want to go beyond just the struts and springs and replace the tie-rods, control arm bushings etc.. has anyone done a complete overhaul?
