Default Bilstein Evo FAL Question
Hi all,
Tomorrow is the delivery day for my 992.1 I was able to get a REALLY good deal on a set of EVO SE. The only caviat is that it’s for FAL Part no 49-300581. My 992.1 does not have FAL. Are these completely incompatible? Was reading that FAL units do not have any adjustment in front?

Not sure if they would still fit but I’ll defer to others who have installed them. And yes 100% the front isn’t adjustable. It’s a fixed 35mm drop from PASM height. (25mm drop from SPASM)

It probably wont since the FAL kit spring rests on the FAL collar. Without the collar, you'll be short and missing the lower spring perch.

The FAL compatible kits will not work on non-FAL cars. You won't have anything for the springs to rest upon. The FAL lifting mechanism acts as the lower spring perch.
