David,
I just saw this thread. I have a set of rear drop links from my PSS-9's that I never installed. Let me know if you are interested in them. I think your office is close to mine in Columbia, mine is off of guilford road near RT32.

Question

Anyone know if the rear drop link for the PSS9s are the same as for the HDs? Unfortunately, I lost traction in the rain, hit a curb, and damaged my rear wheel. Looking at the suspension, also broke the drop link, so I need a new one.

Thanks!

Glad you are okay. The weather has been terrible this week- ice and now heavy wind and rain, and it is supposed to get worse...

If you broke a drop link hitting a curb, there could be other damage or bent components in the suspension. I would make a very careful examination of the ball joint and all the links...also inspect the hub and drive shaft. It goes without saying that you will probably want to get it into a competent shop like Truline for an alignment to make sure that nothing got knocked out of whack.

BTW, I am right over the hill from you in Lake Forest Park.

Thanks, Tom. I'm definitely planning on giving it a good look over and then into an alignment shop for a check.
