Since the torsion bars didn't settle quite like some said I went back in today to re-index them. I got it perfect the second time around. It was also much easier the second time. It only took about three hours. I also got my Toyo Proxes T1-S's mounted and balanced. Well here are the pictures.

There is a bit more negative camber than before. I am going to swing by my mechanics place tommorow and see if he thinks the rear needs to be adjusted any. I don't think it will. The car handles so good now...

Thanks!! I couldn't be happier with how the car is handling with only springs, torsions bars, new oem rear shocks, and tires. Now the finishing touch, Adrial's Turbo S sway bars. I currently do not even have a rear sway bar and the car is very flat through the corners.
944Pete,
The rear bumper is a Gemballa. I have never seen another one online or in person. the Gemballa website doesn't have any 944/968 stuff. I love it. It is not quite even, you can probably tell from the pic. Since the important stuff is now finished I will try and get it straightened out. I am considering taking it off when I leave Germany
As you can see there is a gap above the bumper

Sure. The eccentric is still adjusted all the way down right now. I am going to go back to the shop and put it in the middle. The car is about 1cm to low right now. I am then going to get the front end alignment done. These new tires are awesome. BTW, Chuck mounted and balanced my tires for free.

Michael,
Don't you love the killer hobby shops on base? Need a tool? Just ask (got a chit?). When I was younger I spent lots of time in the one at Ramstein "helping" my dad on our various cars.

Man I don't know what I am going to do when I get out. I live by Sembach but I always go to the Auto Hobby Shop on Kapaun. The guys there are really cool and they are much better equiped.
