About two years ago I had a friend who took a little joy ride and clipped a curb on the front right. In the process of swapping springs at the moment I notice that the Bilstein HD shock braket that bolts onto the wheel carrier/nuckle is twisted at the bottom.

Upon seeing this, I notice that the knucle is also a bit twisted just as the shock is. Whereas the driver side the two pieces are in line, the damaged side is a bit offset.

The alignment place didn't mention anything of the sort, and are usually able to set up the alignment with no issue, however, I've noticed that for the second time my steering has gone a tad of center. Would you guys say this is the cause?

Suffice it to say if the wheel carrier or the strut is askew or damaged it's not going to steer or align correctly.
I have a set of 993 uprights I could sell as spares ,would pretty much upgrade your entire suspension in one fell swoop , $300 shipped conus

Mr.Alex

Thanks for the offer, but I'm trying to keep costs down at the moment and found a local, good condition 964 carrier. One day when everything else is done, I might do the EVO carriers.

You could have an upright for free from me. But shipping from Sweden to the US is a cost.

Mr.Alex

Appreciate it a lot Thomas, but I was luckly enough to grab a local one for a great price and hopefully get this swapped quickly, its been too long since it was on the road.

Local solutions are often the best!
