Now to my challenge: in the GT3, these are used with a spring perch/top hat that channels the force to the monoball whereas in other 986/996's the spring has a ruber lined spring seat in the top mount.

Suggestion · Original poster

Some after market top mounts allow for re-use of the original spring seat which is not how the GT3 part is designed.

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I've mounted a set of H&R monotube coilovers on my 986S (since the front is identical to 996 C2, I assumed there would be a better chance if finding someone in this section). These coilovers can be used with the stock front top mount - spring lands right into the stock, rubber-lined spring seat. It all works rather well. Now, I'd like to get some extra camber as I track the car every now and then. I found a reasonably priced 996.343.181.9R GT3/Cup front top mounts that can be rotated for an extra degree of neg camber. Diagram Now to my challenge: in the GT3, these are used with a spring perch/top hat that channels the force to the monoball whereas in other 986/996's the spring has a ruber lined spring seat in the top mount. Some after market top mounts allow for re-use of the original spring seat which is not how the GT3 part is designed. I'm assuming that I need something like this: MODE spring perch or perhaps the original GT3 part . I don't know what the inner diameter of the spring is - original and H&R should be the same since the same spring seat can be used. Is there someone here who has done this or could help me in finding the right part(s)?

It should be the standard 2.5". Those spring cups that you listed should work.
