Preliminary Work And Notes On Assembly
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 9 other vehicles, including the 2013 Porsche 911, 2012 Porsche 911, 2011 Porsche 911, 2010 Porsche 911, and 2009 Porsche 911. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- If the vibration damper is to be replaced, set the height-adjusting nut -12-
to the same position as on the old vibration damper (copy the actual dimension -A-
to the new vibration damper).
A special tool hook wrench 9647 is required for this purpose.
Tightening torque for lock nut -11- = 50 Nm (37 ftlb.).
The special tool hook wrench 9647 is required for changing the vehicle height (dimension A) and for setting dimension B.
The hook wrench 9647 is used together with a torque wrench to tighten the lock nuts (grooved nuts) -11- on the spring strut. Tightening torque: 50 Nm (37 ftlb.).
The adjustment dimension -B- for installation (position of spring strut in wheel carrier) is 196 mm (plus/minus 1.0 mm). Determine the actual dimension -B- and set the required value -B- if necessary.
