Hello,

I would like to share a DIY Coilover install which I did last week. I am not a an experienced mechanic. So far the install was a success. I tried to document every step as it goes. I don't know what a wheel carrier was until I started this project . I cannot find a detailed DIY on the web for the Base 997.2 so I want to share this. Please add corrections to the DIY as needed. This is a PDF file.

Wow, great write up. I could have used this a couple months back when I swapped out my suspension. Rep points for you.

 

terrific write-up! well done and thanks for sharing.

 

Amazing write-up. More rep points coming at you.

 

Thanks guys! I just wanted to share. I know there are some who wanted to do it but the DIY found in here does not explain or show it step by step for the 997.2. This was my second major DIY mod, the first one was changing my exhaust and it was very rewarding to do on your own. I feel more bonded to my car after working on it. Here are some before and after photos. The car was lowered by an inch.

 

great write up and thanks for taking your time to do this.

 

Make me wanna take on this challenge. Great write up for sure.

 

I am going to tackle this DIY over the holidays, but wasn't able to see the doc. Any chance you still have it and can send to me or post again or Drop box?

 

I can see it fine. But here's a copy just in case. No I'm not the author, just reposting it as an attachment for gray911

 

I was trying to check while at work and I bet the security settings didn't allow the doc to come thru. Thanks for the copy anyway. Much appreciated!

 

Awesome write up! thank you for that, I watched my springs being installed the first time and should have paid more attention, now im getting ready to do coilovers and this definitely helped refreshed my memory

 

No problem. Glad it helped.

Awesome, just downloaded and printed. Thanks for taking the time to write this.

 

Thanks!


This is great.

 

Wow nice. So how many hours does this take to do?
