So I'm in the process of installing coilovers, and I ran into an issue. It's past business hours, so I was hoping to see if anyone here had any ideas before I get to call tomorrow morning.

I ordered Torque Solution camber arms to deal with the alignment issues after lowering the car, but the bushings are too wide to fit into the mounting location. My confusion is that ALL 996 & 997 models are listed for these arms, yet I can't see how they possibly would fit...

Here are some pictures showing the difference in width & lined up to the mounting location.

Any thoughts?

 

The "high misalignment bushings" (that's what they are called) in your rod ends are obviously too long. Check and see if all 8 are the same width. It's not critical on the other end, only for the clevis in your second pic. If you have some narrower bushings included, swap them around. If not the Mfg screwed up. You might also check and make sure there is very little play between the bushings and the bolt. I made my own dog bones and sleeved the bushings from 1/2" to 12mm for a precise fit on the ID.

 

Yeah, I was hoping there were some narrower bushings, but they are all the same width.
I did notice that it doesn't really matter on the other end, since the width can vary, but obviously they are not going to fit into the clevis (learn something new every day) as is.

 

What is the total width on the original part??

 

Not sure. Don't have the part on me. Torque Solution is over-nighting new flutes to fit so I should be good.
