Hey all,
This is for my fabricated front sway bar. What is the range of adjustability of the standard adjustable drop links (welt, tarret, smart, etc.) from the center of one hole to the center of the other hole?

Another quick question... How does this range work for slightly lowered 914's? Should they be any shorter/longer? I'm having some parts machined and i don't have my 914 around to measure. Gotta love the campus machine shop, they're doing the work for free!

thanks in advance,

David

As I understand it, the sway bar ends should be horizontal, or as much as possible, and so the links between the lower "A" arm and sway bar end should be adjustable to a degree. Go to www.paragon-products.com for some photos of the standard drop links and the "competition" links, which are more easily adjustable. Don't know when I'll be at dad's place to measure the links on my car, which is the standard welt. bar, but will do so if you don't have a response in a couple days. If you come up with a double heim jointed easily adjustable, (like the comp's) I'd be up for a set to update my ride...
