They are pretty cheap at $13 plus shipping, but before I bought one I thought I would check here first and see if anyone would like to loan me one.

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.

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

  • Rennlist: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I bought a 997 shifter to put in my Boxster S. From all my searching it appears a lot of folks here have done the same switch with good results. It appears that I need a Shift Alignment Tool (shown below courtesy of Suncoast). They are pretty cheap at $13 plus shipping, but before I bought one I thought I would check here first and see if anyone would like to loan me one. TIA.

POST 2Original post

One came with my 997 shifter. Not with yours? Can't find mine now.

POST 3Original post

I should have one at the shop that you're welcome to have, I can check tomorrow. You can get by w/out it btw, if you're mechanically inclined w/this sort of thing.

POST 4Original post

I have one that you are free to borrow...I am local in SFV. PM me if interested.

POST 5 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Typical Rennlist response. Many thanks. I'll PM socalgt3 and use his as he is local to me. Thanks again.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I'll close this thread out with a big thanks to Patrick (socalgt3). He was kind enough to loan me the tool and the shifter was installed without issue. Gotta love this place.
