Hi guys!
Any updates here?
I just installed Ohlins Track&Road on my 996 turbo and need new drop links..

What´recommended?
To use with the ohlins mounts preferred..

 

Tarett should be able to provide the appropriate sized spacer with your order these days.

 

What´s the best solution?
I found this that will be mounted on the 12mm bolt that tighten the shock http://www.rennline.com/Extended-Fro...EXTFDLNK%2D10/
Easy to install with is good..

And this that need me to dismount everything again.. http://www.rennline.com/Extended-Fro...EXTFDLNK%2D10/
But think this look´s better..

Another option is Tarret if they got a solution that is working now on the Ohlins mount so I don´t need to dismount..

What to do?

 

you can use stock drop links...

 

You got photos with stock installed? Front and rear if possible..

 

Don't think I have any right now, but can grab some soon...but is identical fitment to stock GT2/3 coilovers....

 

That would be perfect..
Thanks so far!

 

don't feel bad, I have this issue but with moton's and I think erp drop links..

 

So what I am hearing is the following:
1. It's not the coil over brand that is the issue
2. If you use coil over mount and Tarett extended links, you will need to do some grinding and add significant spacers
3. If you use Tarett mount and extended links, no spacers needed and minor grinding

Can these 3 statements be confirmed and/or commented on? Thank you. Planning my next upgrade.

 

The Tarett extended mounts and drop links (the $500 ones) are the way to go if you want something that will work. If you need 'em, I have a set. I would still recommend that you grind away about 1/4" of the aluminum on the upright (near the pinch bolt) for added clearance especially if you use aftermarket adjustable front sway bars as clearance may change depending on what hole you are connected to. Also, check your clearance with the suspension loaded lock to lock. I recommend covering the drop link with blue painters tape and taking the car for a ride to check for any clearance issues.

 

Daedalus just an update on the extended drop link binding issue. I reversed the lower mount to the inside of the sway bar with the spacer between the sway and mounting bolt. I also rotated the upper mount arm slightly and it has eliminated the binding. You will only be able to access the last hole due to the steering sensor mounted on the control arm. Not an issue for me as I prefer the last mounting location.

I'll try and post a pic if I get a chance this weekend. Im sure It is possible to remount sensor if you need to access the inner sway bar holes.

It appears the slightly more upright carriers due to the fwd changes the geometry enough to bind.

 

I use the tarret links that attach to the shock clamp bolt in the spindle and I have check numerous times for binding and have zero. But I am running the RWD GT2/3 spindles versus the AWD spindles.

 

stock GT2/GT3 and no problems

 

The GT2/3 spindles are no issue. It's the geometry of the awd spindles that creates a large sweep as you turn thus causing clearance issues.
