Hi, Can anyone tell me if I am able to fit 987 Cayman R shocks and springs, front and rear, to my Boxster S 987.1 please? From what I have been able to find out so far there shouldn't be any problems, but would love to hear from anyone who has actually done it. Thanks

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.

I fitted Boxster Spyder shocks and springs to my 987.2 . No problems at all. I never looked to see if they're the same parts as the Cayman R but the idea is the same. Easy to do, except the front sway bar if you're doing that as well.
Thanks Adam, that is really helpful, I hadn’t thought of using Spyder shocks. I just need to confirm that there is no difference in the shock mountings between a 987.1 and 987.2 Boxster .
