A very professional approach to this job indeed.From what I see all Porsche models are dealt with including the classic air cooled stuff.
brilliant video extremely informative, thank you Larose you guys are amzing!
Pretty much the same experience I'm going trough at the moment with my 986. Of my rear camber adjustment bolts, the O/S came out OK while on the N/S one snapped but came out, while the one through the Coffin arm was seized and I had to cut it out.
Surprised you didn't fit new dampers though while it was all apart, they are most likely the same age as the rest of the suspension and even though they appear OK, I bet if you compared them they would all exhibit different damping, mine certainly did.
When you do change the dampers it is worth mentioning the strut pinch bolt, which is also part of the ARB drop link, will most likely be seized in the hub. One of mine took me 4hrs of heat and a cracking bar to get it out.
I've done mine single handed with the car on Axle stands on my drive, so it is possible at home.
Do you have a a list of everything done? I’d like to do the same for my 996
Great Video thanks for making this for us !
Glad you enjoyed it!
14:14 - Don't wait 20 years to replace suspension components 🤕😂
great content as usual. Cant wait to bring down my 987.2 so you can look at a few issues.
Looking forward to it
That definitely happened....
What was cost for replacement?
Doing all that work, why not replace the shock absorbers and springs?
Spyder Performance sponsored all their own branded parts & don't have their own line of shock absorbers
@@LaRosePorscheKent I see, but it should be a recommendation to change since a lot of work has gone into removing the old springs and shocks?
I almost stopped watching at we haven't looked at your car but we are changing these parts anyway (just for the sponsors)
Nice video but what is cheap?! Can’t see the cost on your site or Spyder performance … have the same 2003 S and I am interested in bringing it to you for a check over
All Spyder Performance parts are the best priced on the market against anything of the same quality. Get in touch & we can get you in & show you around your suspension with the car in the air
How much would you say all those parts were Sir?????
I’m looking at a 1998 same situation
It says cheap...... doesn't look like it, but they were probably donated for the video , thus cheap!! 😎
I bought a car from these people. The day I collected the handbrake pad retaining springs broke. They couldn't fix it so I drove away in a car with no handbrake. They sent me the parts and I paid a local guy to fit them. He told me the brakes were in a terrible state but in fairness LaRose sent me new pads and discs all round. I did the rears but there was a delay fitting the fronts. When I finally came to fit the fronts I realised they were the wrong ones. I told them but they refuse to change them. So if you want a Porsche with dodgy brakes and like abysmal customer service these guys are the place to go
I just got an estimate of $5,700.00 for my 2006 Cayman S. And this does not include an alignment. Thoughts?
Depending on what that includes...it does sound a bit punchy
Whoa it was 986 views when I watched. Sorry to ruin the magic number!
I guess you get what you pay for .. the Chinese parts will last 2 years, while the original ones lasted 20 years ..
clowns, wouldnt let you work on my pushbike
That’s a bit unfair isn’t it? Why the negativity?
I agree, just looking at them hammer your vehicle and the unsafe way of heating it and starting a small fire🤦♂️
Personally I would have dropped the shocks, springs and topmounts. Then worked on the bench to remove seized topmounts. But I guess whatever works for you.
I'm always a little worried, fire, cutter and fuel tank !!!
