Chuck,

I'm interested in hard-rubber rear-trailing-arm bushes. Can you help me?

ciao

Yes Chuck I have noticed in my RSA that all the rubber bushings soon will need replacement.. the bushing in the suspension, Engine mounts,Transmission mounts all seem to be falling apart in the same manner..

be sure that there is clearance between the side piece and the body seam, some of the tops aren't thick enough to prevent contact. If that happens the mounts don'r seat properly

The only other thing I might do is install Tarret toe links w/ locks if the oe start slipping

A friends w/ 993RS arms and Tarrets

Hi Bill
Are you willing to share any photo's of your car showing rear ARB / drop link / toe link orientation?
it seems that when one switches from "stock ARB to RS ARB, the ARB moves from above the toe link to below.
I know that drop link mounting point on the coilover affects this relationship also.

thank you,
that'll do.

you wrote
"some concern as to why the right rear was way out despite an alignment <2000mi ago
old -2* camber, new -2.5*"

I too saw this from one alignment to the next with no obvious reason other than driving, or more likely measurement error by the alignment guru.

I've marked all the alignment points and can easily monitor them for movement, since I installed the Tarret toe links the alignment has remained steady. I'm back to -2.5 front and -2.0 rear camber

Here's the current configuration
