Rear drop links
 
Hi all,

For those with rear drop links, can you comment on

  1. Comfort: Has the ride been noticably bumpier?
  2. Reliability: Has your drop links been reliable? Any issues/noises?
  3. Warranty: Does this affect our warranty?
  4. Maker: Who did you buy them from?
thanks in advance!

1. Yes - ride is MUCH stiffer and borders on uncomfortable for rear passengers - but also running on 22" wheels. Taking suspension out of sport mode helped great deal to soften ride.
2. No issues what-so-ever.
3. No idea as there have been no reasons that relate to the suspension for them to deny.

It's my business partners car, mine is stock. I helped him set it all up and he did the wheels, front springs, rear links and exhaust. I don't remember what the cost was for each component (it was done about two years ago), think the whole thing was about $10k installed with the aero kit.
