What This Product Does:
- The front drop link connects the front anti-roll bar (sway bar) to the suspension upright or control arm assembly.
- As the car corners and the suspension moves, the drop link transmits motion into the roll bar, allowing it to resist body roll and keep the car flatter in turns.
- When the drop link is correctly functioning, it ensures the roll bar is properly engaged, steering response stays crisp, and the front end remains stable under dynamic loads (cornering, braking, etc.). — This helps maintain contact patch and overall suspension balance.
Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
- Clunking or knocking noises from the front when hitting bumps or during quick steering inputs.
- Increased body roll or loose front end — the car may lean more in corners, and responses may feel vague.
- Uneven handling between left and right turns — one side might feel different due to asymmetry in link condition or geometry.
- Visual play or damage — the rod end, bushings, or links may show wear, cracking, or play on inspection.
- Degraded rollover control — the sway bar may not be fully engaged because the link is not transferring the loads effectively.
- Better handling & stability: Replacing worn drop links restores the proper transfer of roll bar loads, which improves front-end stability and sharper responses.
- Maintains geometry & balance: Worn links may allow movement that disturbs alignment or suspension behaviour; new links help keep everything precise.
- Protects other components: If the link isn’t operating correctly, the load may shift to other parts (bushings, arms, joints) prematurely.
- Especially important for performance or track use: On an RS model or any car used hard, the drop links become even more critical because the suspension is under more stress.
- Safe and predictable feel: A properly functioning drop link contributes to confidence in front-end behaviour during spirited driving.

Upgrade the front anti-roll bar linkages of your Porsche 964 with this high-performance sports drop link set. Designed specifically for the front left and right sides of the 964 C2 / C4 (1990-94) with the M030 sport suspension, these links feature an 85 Shore rated bushing material for minimal compliance and maximum chassis feedback. The result is improved roll resistance, sharper turn-in, and a more connected steering feel. Ideal for restored, tuned or track-prepped 964s, these direct-fit replacements deliver both performance and durability.

What This Product Does:
- The front drop link connects the front anti-roll (sway) bar to the suspension (often via control arm or strut), transmitting roll forces and enabling the bar to limit body roll during cornering.
- A key role is to ensure that the anti-roll bar engages properly without undue delay or unwanted movement; the drop link is the “lever” that transfers motion.
- With the “85 Shore” version, the bushings (or joint material) are firmer (i.e., higher durometer) than the standard version — meaning less flex or slack in the link under load, so the anti-roll bar responds more directly and the front end remains flatter in corners.
- In practical terms this yields sharper front-end handling, reduced body roll, and a more direct “connected” feel through the steering and chassis.
Symptoms & Signs You Might Need This:
- Clunking or knocking noises from the front suspension when going over bumps or through quick directional changes — suggesting the current drop link or its mount is worn.
- Excessive body roll or vague front-end behaviour in corners — the anti-roll bar may not be transmitting load effectively due to flex in the link.
- Uneven handling left vs right — if one drop link side is looser than the other, you might feel asymmetrical behaviour.
- Soft or “mushy” front-end feel, especially if you’ve upgraded other suspension components (lowered car, stiffer springs) and the links are still standard and allowing unwanted movement.
- On inspection: visible sleeve or bushing deterioration, play in the link joints, or rubber flexing significantly under load.
Why This Upgrade Matters:
- The step from standard hardness to 85 Shore gives you a firmer connection in the drop link, meaning the roll bar is engaged more quickly and consistently under load. This is especially beneficial on a car like the 964 with sport suspension or for drivers seeking sharper response.
- It helps preserve and maximise the benefit of other suspension upgrades (e.g., stiffer springs, upgraded shocks, larger tyres) — because the weak link is removed. If the drop link is still soft or worn, the rest of your upgrades may be compromised.
- Better roll-control means more predictable handling, less chassis lean in corners, and improved tyre contact patch maintenance — which improves grip, cornering speed and driver confidence.
- From a maintenance perspective: worn drop links often lead to bushing failure or increased stress on the anti-roll bar and associated mounts. Upgrading proactively can reduce downstream costs and improve longevity.
- For a vehicle with sport heritage (964 C2 / C4) the upgrade aligns with the model’s dynamic capabilities, bringing front-end behaviour closer to tuned-chassis expectation.

What This Product Does:
- The drop link connects the stabilizer anti-roll bar to the suspension control arm or strut.
- When the car corners, the stabilizer bar tries to resist body roll. The drop link transfers those forces between the bar and the suspension arm, helping to keep the car more level and stable during cornering.
- It ensures that roll (leaning) forces are distributed symmetrically across both sides of the front suspension.
Symptoms Of A Faulty / Worn Drop Link:
- Clunking or knocking noises from the front suspension, especially when going over bumps or uneven surfaces
- Increased body roll or leaning in corners
- Uneven tire wear due to uneven suspension load
- Loose / sloppy feel in the front end or steering under load
- The car may feel less stable or less precise in handling
Why Replacement Matters:
- Restores proper roll resistance and handling balance — essential for safe and confident cornering
- Eliminates noise and harshness introduced by loose or failing links
- Prevents excessive stress on other suspension components (bushings, ball joints, control arms)
- For inspection / MOT in many regions, worn suspension links are often flagged as faults

The ideal swaybar is completely unloaded at static ride height. Stock drops links almost always preload the swaybar since the car doesn't sit perfectly level due to asymmetries such as driver weight.Our front and rear adjustable-length drop links for C4/C2 allow you to eliminate preload of the swaybar for maximum performance.
A preloaded swaybar shifts the weight carried by each of the tires, increasing grip on weighted tires at the expense of decreasing grip on un-weighted tires. This shifted weight/grip causes uneven handling in left and right turns, and premature brake lockup since the less-loaded tire locks up first. Preload can be completely eliminated by adjusting drop link length and swaybar performance optimized.
