Might even be able to improve the geometry at the same time,

Slightly off topic:
Do 944 seats fit easily in a later SB?
I currently have a new fabricated TCA (50 x 30 x 3.03Kg) with PU bushes for the AR bar and inner pivot; dropped inner pivot point to drop the roll centre; flipped AR bar with PU bushes. The outer ball joint is on an adjustable carrier to set the caster from around 2 deg to 5 deg. It works but as said the A arm/compression strut would have been a better solution. The amount of fabrication just to put the spherical links in with a normal sway bar means that it is but a little step to do a full A arm fabrication that incorporates less adaptation (botches) to acheive a much better result.

PS I have fitted Alfa 116 GTV seats that are similar to 944 ones - God! the drivers seat is heavy (height adjustable)
