Vehicle Height/Wheel Loads

The vehicle height at the front and rear axle of the 911 GT3/GT2 can be adjusted at the spring struts.

Adjusting the height means that different wheel loads on the left and right can be corrected.

At the correct height, the wheel-load differences are within a permissible range, provided that the coil springs have the same installation position (installed spring preload) on each axle. Tolerance 1 mm. Wheel-load differences can be kept as low as possible in conjunction with wheel-load weighing machines. Tolerance from right to left on front and rear axle is less than 15 kg.

To check the height of a ready-to-drive vehicle (full tank and tools, washer-fluid reservoir full), place the vehicle on a level surface or on the measuring station.

Required values for front and rear axle are given in the relevant table.

GT2 (997) up to 2009 model and GT3, GT3 RS (997) or GT2 RS (997) 2011 model → 4400TW ADJUSTMENT VALUES FOR SUSPENSION ALIGNMENT .

Adjustments should be made with the axle raised. Taking the load off the wheels makes it easier to make the adjustment (adjusting nuts on the spring strut are easier to turn and will have no signs of damage).
