It was first time for me so definitely learned a lot. I hope these help others who decide to install on their own.

Mike!!!! Man, this is what makes you a great guy. The fact that you always offer to help out. Good on you man and Simtiaz the stance looks great. I've got a white 997 aero so let's get some sibling shots

LOL all I saw was Fraggle working like an indentured servent in 30 pics and sid stepping out of the project managment role and helping in 1 or 2 pics hahha just kidding fellas!!

Great work guys, again looks like the BFH was close on hand as needed...Fraggle you rock buddy... that was a awesome for you to offer to help others out on their car, some of us are not so inclined to tackle projects kike this on our own, myself included!

Sid man the white TA are looking great man...not too late to reconsider

Mike is a great guy and I thank him for his help. Mike anytime you need any family Portraits etc let me know
Thanks Boochook, lets plan a photoshoot, do you have any place/idea in mind?

BMWDEMON, thanks for the compliments on white rims

Using some low tech tools on a high tech car. the BFH and the pipe wrench were my favourites. I didn't get to use my 5ft prybar tho.

also after doing this I'm confident that I can easily install struts springs and swaybars or brakes on any 997!

OK BERK your car's next!!

No jokes, bring it on! We were literally two small screws per corner away from being able to swap Sid's.

Only bump we ran into was that the calipers wree on so damn tight we broke my allen socket. Off to sears and bam it's replaced.

Brakes are brakes and especially on sportscars they are easy to replace.

KJ Mike is right, I didn't know it was simple and that easy to take down the calipers. I'll be switching to steels when my PCCB wears out..

looks good.
are you planning on getting alignment soon? and/or corner balanced as you are planning on tracking the car soon again if I recall correctly. I wish i could have been there.
