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.

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

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

POST 2Original post

I bought one for my 78 back when/then so I am sure there will be one available for the 996, somewhere. Performance Products maybe?

POST 3Original post

POST 4Original post

Doug, You're not dreaming. I also did read it somewhere, but can't find it now. What I remember inolves the use of a hockey puck. It's hard rubber,which is the carved to exactly fit the jack point at one face, and flat on the other face that meets the jack. Seemed like a cool idea.

POST 5Original post

I'd suggest AJ USA. Go to their site and do a search for jack pad. The part number is AJR 559 149 02 and they cost $75.95. I have a couple of these and they work quite well, especially if you have the aero kit side skirts. I also looked at Performance Products because I couldn't remember where I got mine at. However, the picture they show is for the old-style 911 jack that fits into a square tube in the undercarriage. It may be the wrong picture but what they are showing won't work on a 993/996. Karl

POST 6Original post

I bought one but can't use it as my floor jack (even with the cup removed) is too tall with the pad installed.

POST 7Original post

Here is mine. It replaces the saddle on my floor jack. Due to the design when the car is raised the jack is "pinned" to the car and the car cannot slide off the jack.

POST 10Original post

They call me Mr. Tool Pants b/c I have a few and actually work on cars. Sometimes you need to get them up in the air on a driveway (sometimes with a slope) to work on them. I have 2 floor jacks. You can use a piece of wood or a hockey puck or the other various jack pads I have seen over the years for the 986/996 - but I will not get under your car w/o a jack stand or a wheel under there. Then I saw a jack saddle/cup plate that made sense a few months ago and contacted Paul Wilding and bought it. That is what the pics are of. He is a Porsche owner and makes tools. The pin size is 1 3/16" but not all jacks have the same size - but he will make it to your order. <a href="http://www.wildingeng.com/" target="_blank">Wilding Engineering</a> <img src="http://www.986host.com/albums/ToolPants/jack_pad_pelican.jpg" alt=" - " /> <img src="http://www.986host.com/albums/ToolPants/jack5.sized.jpg" alt=" - " />
