rear suspension noise over tar strips

Interesting comparison pics. I wonder if there is a weight difference. It looks like the 987 arm might decrease the maximum allowable back-spacing for the rear wheel.

Hoping Brad will explain why he much prefers the 987 part for the 986.

Interesting, I will take a look and see if I can tell a difference once I have one side new (987) and one side old (986)

Now I want to run down there and see right away

Edit: I looked and I don't think so, if there is a change in clearance it is only 1 mm or so (but then I guess this could be the critical mm when fitting some wheels...)
