The rear stabilizer bar helps reduce body roll during cornering by linking suspension movement across the rear axle. The drop links connect the stabilizer bar to the suspension, while the bushes and clamps secure the bar to the chassis. Replacing these components together helps restore correct rear anti-roll bar operation and rear axle stability.

Why Replace This Kit?
Rear stabilizer bar components are exposed to road dirt, moisture, suspension load, vibration, heat, and age. Drop link joints can wear or develop play, bushes can crack or compress, clamps can corrode, and bolts can seize or become damaged during removal. Worn components may cause rear suspension knocking, increased body roll, vague handling, uneven response, or failed inspection. Replacing the drop links, bushes, clamps, and bolts together helps restore a secure and balanced rear anti-roll bar assembly.
When to Replace This Kit
• Rear suspension knocking or clunking is present
• Rear drop links are worn, loose, noisy, or damaged
• Stabilizer bar bushes are cracked, split, compressed, or missing
• Clamps or bolts are corroded, seized, or damaged
• Rear anti-roll bar service or suspension refresh is being carried out
• Handling feels vague or body roll has increased
• The vehicle is undergoing Porsche 996 Turbo suspension restoration.

OEMatch Rear Drop Links & Bushes — Control, Stability, Comfort
These rear drop links and bushes connect the anti-roll bar to the suspension and chassis on Porsche models, helping to control body roll, maintain balance and support tyre contact through corners while contributing to ride comfort and predictable steering feedback in everyday and sporting use.
Available Types
- Replacement rubber bushes matched to original dimensions
- Performance-grade polyurethane bushes for firmer response
- Steel drop links with bonded or spherical joints
- Complete link kits including new fasteners and sleeves
Understanding OEMatch Rear Drop Links & Bushes
OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts are made by the same company that produced your Porsche’s original drop links and bushes.
OE (Original Equipment) refers to parts matching original specifications for the drop links and bushes and may be supplied by alternative manufacturers. Aftermarket parts offer alternative options, sometimes with enhanced features or better value. OEMatch supplies non-OEM drop links and bushes engineered as direct-fit alternatives to OEM parts, made to original-spec dimensions and tolerances for Porsche models.
Drop links and bushes act as the connection between the anti-roll bar and the suspension mounting points, transferring forces and keeping the bar aligned as the chassis moves. Correctly functioning links and bushes maintain suspension geometry, reduce unwanted body movement and keep the tyres settled on the road for consistent grip and handling.
Benefits Include
- Restores chassis stability and reduces body roll for clearer handling
- Improves tyre contact and cornering predictability
- Reduces vibration and suspension noise transmitted to the body
Why Drop Links & Bushes Wear and Fail
- Cracked or perished rubber bushes allowing excessive movement
- Corrosion or fatigue in link rods and joint assemblies
- Loose, worn or damaged fastening hardware and sleeves
The Importance of Replacing with OEMatch Rear Drop Links & Bushes
Replacing worn links and bushes restores intended suspension geometry and chassis control, which affects vehicle stability and safety. Correct replacements reduce unpredictable handling, minimise tyre wear and can improve ride quality; choosing parts matched to original dimensions helps maintain proper alignment and predictable vehicle behaviour.
Advantages
- Direct-fit replacements engineered to match original dimensions and tolerances
- Options in material grades to suit restoration or performance needs
- Kits available to renew links, bushes and associated fasteners in one service
