You think the absence of rubber in the Tarret droplink will cause harshness in the ride or unwelcome noise?

I just had the Tarett drop links installed, no problems here so far. Excellent quality product!! The pics show the Tarett drop links vs the ones that came in the PSS10 kit.

I just kept the standard OEM sways that were on the car, but did remove and re lubricate the rubber bushings. Also the rear toe links were bad (new ones shown in picture)so those were replaced also. We also noted on my car that the front A-arm bushings will need replaced and I plan to do the "Walrod" DIY on those this winter.

Nah, these are just droplinks so won't affect ride quality at all. I haven't disassembled factory parts, but I don’t think they have rubber anyway, just plastic bushings.

Tarett produce excellent product and their service is fantastic. I broke a bolt on one of my front droplinks and lost one of the machined spacers. I called up Ira and he sent me the replacement parts no cost (just shipping). After that I recommend Tarett any time I can.

They dont effect ride harshness at all, they just give you much better control of preload (allows you to remove it).
