Default Help me spend more money - Or a suspension question

Got the KW V3 and wondering if there's anything else I should replace / update while it's being installed. Bushings, sway bar, etc


Thanks

you got them thru the promo program, right? Congrats on the purchase! Please post some pics when you get them and a review when you get them on!

I would suggest replacing your front control arm bushings, if needed.

Control arm bushings, ball joints, tie rod ends, anti-sway bushings, drop links...you have already spent the big money, might as well do the rest.

How much you wanna spend? The list above is a good list, now just decide what level you want to go with the replacement parts.

This is a great thread, as I'm going to be in the same boat as soon as I receive my V3's

Congrats! Control arms and bushings would be ideal while you are doing suspension.

50/50 track and street.

I'll look around (looked at Elephant) and saw the post here: https://rennlist.com/forums/993-foru...shings-27.html as well to get some ideas.

I'll do some more searching, post some thoughts to get some input.

Thanks guys

Top Hats, bushings?

I changed to the FD Control Arm Bushings on my 993. The road feel got much better.

A buddy of mine with a 944T did a combo set up with KW Variant 3, Elephant Racing & the build continues.
