As has been said, go with brand name stuff.

Also, I "think" that anyone can open an account with PMNA. All you need is a credit card.

Does PMNA make adjustable dog bones and toe links similar to what RSS makes?

My experience with aftermarket suspension parts has been less than stellar, with the heim joints wearing out quickly.

sounds like PMNA bits are the way to go. What are prices like compared to say RSS?

LVDell

I don't think so. My monoball PMNA dog bones were fixed. Really not sure why guys want the threaded dog bones for anything other than bling. Just one more adjuster that can move and not needed. Camber is very easy to fix on the bottom eccentric.

PAULUNM

You're saying adjust camber via the LCA, correct?

LVDell

correct

PAULUNM

Do you feel the toe steer kits are unnecessary as well?

LVDell

Oh god no. The most important first piece you should add to the car. Get the locking plate kit as well so you can lock the settings in without possible eccentric changes under load.

PAULUNM

Does PMNA make these?

LVDell

Not the locking plates. But the rest you can get from PMNA. It's just a steering rod with a thread adjuster and a proper mounting joint. Just go with the Tarett set (THESE or THESE if you plan to bump steer the car with a ride height adjustable suspension)

Make sure to get the locking plates as well.

+1 to Dell's comments. I agree with his PMNA comment as well, but the independent vendors exist because they charge LESS than PMNA.

A great example of this is rotors... This is why so many 996GT3 DE guys have moved from the front, cross-drilled PMNA cup parts to after-market brands for the Cayenne... $500/rotor versus $80/rotor is a huge cost savings...

Per Dell's last post, I went with Tarett and their locking plates in 2006. Not a problem since... Now my car has gone squirelly into the corners of late - but it was not my accenture... Damn LSD needs a rebuild!

Anyone have the part number for the PMNA mono all dog bones? These would be perfect as I don't want the threaded kind. Also, is it possible to replace the Oem dogbone rubber bushings with mono *****? That would be most economical.

LVDell

I'll check when I get back home later this week if John hasn't posted it yet.

powdrhound

Super, thanks. I'm assuming these would work on a 996tt?

So it sounds like there is no negative feedback on GMG and the rest of the aftermarket stuff has mixed reviews. Does that sound accurate?

Also, isn't there something online with the full PMNA catalog? Seems like these parts are somewhat hard to get. I would think PMNA would be happy to sell them to the public as they likely have a nice mark up.

If you buy a cup car, you will get a cd version of the manuals with it.
