Restore full roll bar functionality on your Porsche 993 RS with these front drop links. These pivotal connections link the front anti-roll bar to the suspension, transferring roll forces precisely and eliminating slack or compliance.
Designed for the 1994-1997 Porsche 993 RS, these links help sharpen turn-in, reduce front body roll, and restore confident handling. Whether you’re replacing worn originals or refreshing suspension, fitment is direct and performance gains noticeable.
Fits:
- Porsche 993 (911) RS 1994-97

What This Product Does:
- The anti-roll bar (sway bar) helps control body roll in corners by linking left and right suspension movements.
- The drop link is a pivotal connection between the bar and the suspension component — as the wheel moves up/down, the drop link transmits that motion into the roll bar.
- Good drop links ensure the roll bar works effectively with minimal compliance or unwanted movement. They maintain correct link length and geometry so the roll bar engages at the correct time.
- Particularly on high-performance models (like the RS) or with upgraded suspension, the drop link helps ensure the roll bar is correctly loaded and the front end remains stable and balanced.
Symptoms Of Worn Or Faulty Drop Links:
- Clunking or knocking noises at the front when going over bumps or during cornering — a common sign of worn link joints or degraded bushings.
- Excessive body roll or unstable front end — if the drop link isn’t properly transferring loads into the roll bar, you may feel more lean in corners or a vague front end.
- Uneven handling between left/right turns — because the bar/link geometry might be inconsistent, one side may feel different to the other.
- Excessive play or visual wear — on inspection you might see movement at the link joints, cracked rubber boots, or bushings that have decomposed.
- Mis-behaviour under braking or turn-in — the front end may dive or tilt unexpectedly if the drop link fails to control roll bar engagement.
- On a performance car like the 993 RS, precise suspension and anti-roll bar behaviour is critical. Worn drop links degrade the roll bar’s ability to control body roll and handle loads, which impacts suspension balance and driver confidence.
- Replacing worn links restores firm, predictable front roll bar connection, ensuring the bar is engaged fully and at the right time. That means sharper turn-in, less body movement and more balanced cornering.
- A new drop link helps maintain correct geometry, prevents secondary wear on other suspension components (since the roll bar and links aren’t operating sub-optimally), and reduces unwanted noise or hitching.
