Suggestion for replacement drop links? (with rant)
I have **** Weltmeister rear drop links in now with a Weltmeister stiffer rear sway bar.
I'm tired of screwing with them. The thread stripped on the eccentric bolt one from normal street use! Paragon sent me a replacement which I promptly stripped during install because the morons used an IMPERIAL thread on a part for a METRIC car!!! WHAT KIND OF DROOLING MORON DOES THAT? :mad: And I guess the (supposedly 7/16" thread) was close enough to M12 to fool me, but not enough thread engaged to not strip. Then Paragon sent me an incorrect replacement replacement. I decided to check the thread on it. It is no thread size known to man. Another $50 into the trash. Even though their installation document calls it 7/16" its not 7/16" x14 or x20. Its definitely 20 TPI though. And its definitely not M12 either! It might be M12.2x20 TPI. :confused: Anyway, I want to keep the stiffer sway bar, and put the stock eccentric bolts back in, and use drop links that are well designed. Who makes a decent product that will work? Suggestions? |
Which bit are you talking about? I have no eccentric bolt on my drop links off the sway bar. Just a couple of thru bolts - tieing each end of the drop link in. One to the sway bar, one to the suspension arm from memory.
Alan Edit; I am no where near my car right now. But I think my memory is coming back. When I fitted Elephant rear camber adjust I deleted the eccentric bolt for a thru bolt. You could try Elephant Racing. Most of my rear suspension stuff came from them. No issues and totally helpful. |
I don't know what the Weltmiester ones are like. I have Tarret adjustable rear drop links and like them.
