Okay, i know of 4 options for monoballs that will fit our cars.
looking for feedback on any of them, particularly the rennline product, as it's the cheapest option (and since i've cut my chassis/strut-mounts, i don't need aftermarket camberplates to get more camber). ------------- 1st option, Tarret http://www.tarett.com/Browse_Item_Details....89_911912914930 strut mounts with monoballs already inside. $450 (IMG:http://www.gprparts.com/brands/tarett/images/strutMounts.jpg) --------------- 2nd option, Weltmeister http://www.weltmeister.com/ProductDetails....x?productID=371 look similar to the tarret, but weltmeister stuff is generally quite a bit higher on the 'crap' factor. don't have a price. (IMG:http://www.weltmeister.com/ProductImages/911_camberplate.jpg) ------------------ 3rd option, Elephant racing http://www.elephantracing.com/suspension/m...edmonoballs.htm okay, they make good $hit. only a bearing, doesn't include camber plates or anything -- but again, i don't need these. they are "sealed" for protection from the elements. $295 (IMG:http://www.elephantracing.com/images/monoball/911/frontmonoball/monoballwseal.gif) ----------------------- 4th option, Rennline http://www.rennline.com/suspension/monoballs914.htm these are also sealed, come without strut mounts, just the bearing, but only cost $225. i can almost swallow that, but i'm wondering if the quality is as high as elephant racing. (IMG:http://www.rennline.com/photos/products/porsche/suspension/image/frontmonoball_911.jpg) ------------------------ please, discuss amongst yourselves... |

yeah, i've handled the tarret ones. they are nice, i just don't need the plates that come along with them.
definitely don't need to gain more neg camber. after my modifications, i can get up to -3.0 LF and -3.4 RF. which is plenty. however, in doing these mods, i realized how flexible that rubber really is. next time you have your strut out, stick a pipe into the strut mount from above and wiggle it around. unbelievable how much it gives, and my rubber is in really good shape. that can't be good for handling.... so yeah, i want the zero-give factor. it makes me horny. |
