Suspension Guru's Come In - Question??
 

Last night when I was talking to _Zac while we were working on the car I noticed this piece of the car. It's part of the 4pts that holds the rear brake setup up.

My question is basically is this piece (circled in yellow) a solid piece or is it pressed in? If it was a pressed piece how can it support anything because it looks REALLY thin in some areas.

Let me know asap!

it might be a non-load bearing control arm, not sure how it 's set up on the porsche, i've gotten very familiar with mine as i've had 7 failiures in 10 months :(

I would say no go...

I'm pretty sure thats the rear toe link like on many other cars :)

If you wanted something stiffer you could probably pick up an adjustable toe link unit someplace that looks something like these guys. (image stolen from vivid :o)

+1 toe link. Does not support anything, just keeps the tires aligned toe wise.

Chris you're still running stock links on that beast? I suppose toe isn't that important when you chew thru tires every couple weeks anyhow...

Chris, Ben has a set for sale. Contact him

aftermarket ones have washers to correct bump when you lower the car...geometry is off when you lower on the stock toe arm.

Powell i think we need to come up with a Retro "German" ladderbar or 4 link! I would be all over that!!!!
