Can some of you, who exchanged the OEM bushes on the rear traling arm with the ones supplied by Ninemeister, share experiences on installation and final handling during driving.
Thx

Can't say anything on performance gains yet. But installation was no big deal. For me the hard part was getting the trailing arms of the car. Had to get a special tool from Porsche (9299) to get the right trailing arm off . The allenhead bolt is so close to the gearbox on the right side.
The tool goes from 12mm allenhead to regular 22mm head, like this:
Then, remove the old bushing by cutting loose the outer rubber parts and push the inner parts out. Basically following the instructions that came with the bushings.
And voila!:

Just to let everyone know, the bushes are in stock at 9m on the Rennlist special price of £175 plus VAT & Carriage as appropriate.
Sorry Bill but I do not have an equivalvent Shore number for the Poly bushes although I can tell you that we only stock the stiffer material option which is proving to be near ideal for mixed fast road, trackday and racing use.

I believe that stock rubber is 60A and RS is 85A
anyhoo, for those interested in rubber A arm bushes, instead of stock/PU/monoball, Elephant Racing has them for 964/993 front A arms in stock and sport spec. for both the leading and trailing pivot. RS only uses harder bush at one end(need to look up which end)

Jan-Terje,
will replace the bushings coming weekend. Just to confirm, can you indicate which parts needs to be re-used on below picture? (Thx Jasko).
I'm sure about the 2 outer parts. Any other peices? Washers?

I can't recognize removing the two "rings", # 2 from left (green) ? If you read the Fitting Instructions part 1 it says to leave the metal rings.
Apart from that, it is the part # 3 (red) from left which you will want to clean, and re-use.
