Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

8 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I'm replacing my suspension, and want to replace the hardware while I'm in there. The one I can't find is the rear strut lower mounting bolts for where it bolts to the wheel carrier. Does anyone have the bolt specs? For whatever reason, I can't seem to find it in the PET. The Jake Raby Fastening Specifications book for the 996 says it is a M12x1.5, but no length is called out. Great book to have for the do-it-yourselfer, by the way... Related to that, what supplier is your go-to for replacement hardware? I ordered most of my parts from Pelican, but they don't seem to list hardware, and when I called tech support they were't too helpful. I've got a pretty solid list (thanks to PET and the above mentioned book), but I don't know where to pick them up. Thanks!

POST 2Original post

Nuts, bolts and washers get from Porsche dealer. That's what I did. I have a couple items that we did not use for sale on RL

POST 3Original post

900 378 191 09 From parts manager at Porsche. Looking to do the same.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the info. Are there any good aftermarket suppliers? When I rebuilt an Audi S4, ECS Tuning had OEM hardware for much lower cost than the dealer. There must be someone in the Porsche space that does this too...

POST 5Original post

Look just below the listing for #1. And at the very bottom of the parts listing for a M12x1.5x70 with the nut M12x1.5 http://www.autoatlanta.com/porsche-p...section=502-00
