The C4/Turbo used a completely different spring perch as shown in your picture.
Leading evidence: 'Use completely different spring perch as shown in your picture' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, The most frequently discussed action is 'Check info, i only had the row' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

When I used a GT3 bar, it did mount to the pinch bolt, but I switched back to HR and used the mounting point on the wheel carrier.

I had the ROW on mine, and IIRC used the stock drop links mounted to the wheel carrier.

I'll have to check my old info, I only had the ROW on for a little while, and that was years ago.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

That's not the right spot for a stock sway bar drop link. When you run a GT3 bar, you connect a shorter aftermarket drop link (AP, Tarret, etc) to that pinch bolt [as shown in your picture]. With the
stock
sway bar, or an HR bar,
the stock drop link connects under the spring perch
.
See below.

I had the ROW on mine, and IIRC used the stock drop links mounted to the wheel carrier. Maybe someone upgraded to adjustable drop links and mounted to thepinch bolt? I'll poke around later.

Here is a pic which shows the ROW M030 suspension (99 C2), the front struts basically look the same as the stock struts which they replaced and there is no mounting point under the spring perch for the drop link.
tom... the 99' I had also bolted up as shown in the first pic with STOCK drop links....
the GT3 also use same point the pic you are showing must be late model ROW?
I'll have to check my old info, I only had the ROW on for a little while, and that was years ago. When I used a GT3 bar, it did mount to the pinch bolt, but I switched back to HR and used the mounting point on the wheel carrier. I've slept since then, so my memory might be way off.

Oh it's sorted... that was just the threads being soaked in liquid wrench prior to removing the stock suspension and replacing it with the M030.
After I pulled the motor and swapped the brake lines and suspension I sprayed most exposed steel & threads with BH S-50 Dynax to protect them from the elements - so they may not look pretty but they will remain in good shape.
TD,
pretty sure that your picture is a C4. The C4/Turbo used a completely different spring perch as shown in your picture. Also the driveshaft kinda gives it away too.
From what I can remember, the C2's front suspension all mounted the drop link to the pinch bolt for the stock and row suspensions .
