Adj. Rear Sway Bar Droplinks

$50 shipped to the 48 states
$57 shipped Internationally

My paypal is serge944@gmail.com

Features:
- Oversized, cadmium plated (for corrosion resistance), teflon-lined rod ends with zinc coated lock nuts.
- Self maintaining and should outlast the OEM units, all while providing a performance gain.
- Provide a more direct weight transfer of the rear swaybar (minimizing initial loss of energy associated with the rubber OEM droplinks).
- Length adjustable to eliminate pre-load. Pre-load can cause odd handling between left and right as the bar won't be neutral when it should be.
- Allow a more linear swaybar response, as the stock links give before the swaybar has any input.

They will fit all 924/944/968s with a rear swaybar. Instructions, CNC machined Aluminum spacers (thanks to sharky!!), and all necessary hardware.

I've had a few people email me about them so they are back...

These are really nice droplinks, I have a set on my car and I love 'em.

No adjustable links for the front swaybar yet?

For shame

;-)

Serge944 06-26-2007 01:57 PM

I just haven't found a reasonably priced way of going about it. The entire linkage would almost have to be custom machined.

What I would do is use high durometer polyurethane bushings, line everything up with the suspension fully compressed and see if/how much pre-load adjustment you need. You can use something to space the stock link down, like large diameter washers to cover the majority of the bushing surface area.

Swaybar Links
 
I'm new to the 944 and have mixed feelings about the ride quality. I have the Koni adjustables and over a smooth road surface it rides like a dream. Dosen't follow ruts or crowns in the road, I love it. However over a road with patches or uneven street surfaces its like a buckboard with out any suspension. On my other cars ( MGB and Volvo 122S ) evertime I have worked on the suspension like adding bigger swaybars or denser bushings the handling improves but the quality over road imperfections is degraded. My question is what ride change can one expect with these. If the car was mostly a track car, I'd be on them in a flash, but this will mostly be a road car. As I get older quality is starting to win out over razor handling???

Serge944 06-26-2007 04:54 PM

No one has reported a noticeable decrease in ride quality. The spring rate on a stock 944 swaybar is not very high and the NVH trasmitted through it isn't significant, in my opinion.

The purpose behind these is basically to freshen up the suspension at the cost of less than 1 new OE link, while gaining pre-load adjustment.

Maybe others who have used my product can chime in...

Serge.. Do you happen to have any of the aluminum spacers around that i could give a you a few bucks for to replace the nylon ones? I was before that whole deal.

Good to see you're doing well.

Thanks!

Very nice... well priced too. I think I'll pick up a pair in the near future for my 944-Spec race car (planning to use a 968 rear bar). What's the turn-around time on ordering these?

Serge944 06-26-2007 06:17 PM

I will be shipping the first round of orders on thursday. Shipping takes 2-3 days.

I put these on the 968 pictured, with M030 Bars, and loved them! Easy to install and set up.

No noticeable diminished ride quality; just tighter tracking and less movement from the rear end...

Everything feels "All Of A Piece"... NICE!

I need a set. How many are you producing?

Serge944 06-26-2007 09:24 PM

Initial run of 15 sets and I can have more available as needed. I make a post when I'm running low to ensure I don't sell more than I can ship out.
