Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

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.

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

POST 1Original post

Hey all! I've got a line on some 987.2 CS shocks and springs to replace the bilsteins on my 987.1 S, but have yet to purchase them as I'm not 100% certain that they'll fit. I'd imagine there wouldn't be much in the way of major differences, but figured I'd consult the collective first to make sure. Thanks for the input!

POST 2Original post

You might be able to determine this by checking the part numbers for stock suspension on the 987.1S and the 987.2S, if the numbers are the same - the suspension should be swappable. The only major differences I might expect to see would be spring rate/length - some might be different depending on how Porsche configured the car (special editions often had lower ride height.)

POST 3Original post

The suspension tuning might be slightly different, owing to weight differences between the .1 and .2 engines and transmissions, but the mounting points and geometry are identical. So, they will fit. Sent from my SM-N986U using Tapatalk

POST 4Original post

@deilenberger : I did eventually check through this with a shop. It sounds like the major components are the same, so we should be in good shape! TBD on whether there's a major difference between the .1 and .2 tuning, but I'm planning on completing the install myself soon, so we should have our answer before too long. @Croc'ed : Interesting, do you remember off the top of your head if the .2 was lighter or heavier? Planning on keeping the old PSS9s for rebuild or resale, but won't get too far down either road until I verify that I like the new setup. I'm currently trying to decide whether or not to spend the money on new bump-stops for the OEM pair. They're in great shape, only 23k worth of use on them. While the rubber does seem to be in good shape, it's still 13 years old at this point. Any thoughts?

POST 5Original post

It's only conjecture on my part that the suspension tuning might be different, but I'd expect Porsche to fine-tune its suspension tunings to particular equipment combinations. The surest way to tell is to peruse the PET catalog, to compare spring, strut, and anti-roll bar part numbers between similarly-equipped 987.1 and 987.2 Caymans , e.g. Cayman S 3.4, 6-speed manual.
