The 993 RS links are fabbed steel and mostly straight, no? The stock (whether for RWD or C4) are cast, black, and curved to fit around the front driveshaft.

I'm pretty sure I bought the RS links when I needed replacements, for whatever reason.

Bill, I assume you have the part nos;
R = 993 343 070 80
L = 993 343 069 80

It's too dark, to go to the garage now, but if no better response soon, I will try for a photo when there is more light tomorrow.

Thanks guys

yes, I have the part #s, but they are unreadable.

The ones I am looking at are not the cast stockers.

They do have a curve

I do have a pic of the RS parts but it doesn't clearly show the front drop links

Default Just for fun...

check out Tarett Engineering website. Check out their front and rear drop links. I have recently installed them on my 993 NB car. They are so well crafted you may want to buy an extra set for "man jewelry".

Wow, they look less manly than the TRG's. Do they hold up under extreme track conditions? No idea what the Tarett's can support? However, FWIH the stock and TRG's do have a habit of failure under extreme track conditions. Hope these are better.

Cool Tarrett for me...

I have a set of front and rear installed and will put them to the test at Streets of Willow in about 2 weeks with the POC.

Rumor has it that the stock front drop links in conjunction with the TRGs are about 20 to 25mm too long. The Tarett front and rear drop links look very substantial. I am certain they will cut it.
