Yes. But my alignment/camber had a little oversteer in it already. There are only two settings on the H&R front and back...so frankly other factors will have a greater impact on over/understeer than the small relative adjustment of the H&R sways front to back.

YMMV.

Interesting...
No interferences, stock drop links and the ride is LOW. The front is a little lower than RS...I like what the rack does for the handling.

Has anyone built their own drop links or seen the Tarrett's? I'm in the process of selecting the spherical rod bearing components to build my own. The only issue is finding 10mm threaded tube/hex bar. If it was 3/8" then things would be good. I'm curious if Tarrett or anyone else has gone 3/8" instead of 10mm. I'm worried that the 3/8" will pound out with the extra clearance in the sway bar holes.

Default Drop Links......

I have been running the Tarret's for a couple of years it seems. Fine product with an incredible support from Ira Ranin, the owner.

I have a 993 Coupe (Than you Jesus!!), with the TRG sway bars and Tarret drop links front and rear. Great products!

I do remember the post now. I didn't realize you had posted the sizes (3/8"). That would make things easier as Midwest doesn't have the 10mm threaded tube/hex bar. I could use rod instead though w/female sph rod bearings (front).
The rear links should be easy as I doubt there is need for tube as they are short unless you are running the sways underneath. I probably don't need this set-up but one of my front links has a torn rubber. Back to the drawing board.
