Default Lil' suspension ****...

Here is a JRZ RS1 single adjustable suspension I just finished assembling for an AWD 996TT. Full monoballs though out. This is fantastic set up for guys that want a motosport quality monotube damper without the complexity of routing and properly setting up a remote canister set up. The dampers pair compression and rebound into one adjuster with 24 clicks. This suspension is going to receive new set of BBS E88 shoes to keep it's toes nice and happy. Enjoy...

Default Front sway link

the longer front sway links have some binding due to the awd carriers. I have GT sways and had to mount to the inside of the sways. Curious if you had this issue? If not, How did you mount them?

Clearance is tight but no issue if care is taken to mount the brackets at the correct orientation. I've done several kits like these on the AWD cars. I've generally mounted the drop like on the outside of the sway bar with a front OEM sway but with some aftermaket sways or the 5 way GT3 sway, inside sometimes works better. If you have shims in your front LCAs, that helps as it widens the track and creates more clearance. It helps to shave a little "meat" off of the AWD upright right by the pinch bolt. I always wrap the drop links with blue painters tape to make any interference areas easy to spot.

PM sent. It's not drastically more expensive than PSS10s when you factor in all the extra items that are part of the whole set up

Got it! Thanks, I agree not bad at all for what are very quality pieces. Definitely need to work this into the budget.
