WTB: Steering rack brace
If anyone happens to have or come across a steering rack brace for my 95 that would be great. I've got nice new MY02's and can't seem to find a brace.

they have gone up quite a bit...
and as others have said, Porsche is out of stock. We sold our last kit a while back. It was $59 for the brace and bolts. Who knows what it will be when they have them again.
Fabricating them is not a bad idea. They are pretty simple

Trying Gert, but I doubt Europe is any better. I was told they changed the part number as well from .02 to .03 and they had no idea when new one would be out.

If someone gives me the specifications / drawing of the piece I will see if I can manufacture them at my company. If I can manufacturer I will post a price and if there is anyone interested in a group buy

Sometimes ebay can help, of course that one sold
I searched the part # and got lucky # 993 347 131 02
The factory part is pretty flimsy so I think a homemade one would work just fine. My car is still in the air with the front cover off so I could measure it for you, but I won't be able to get to it until later in the week.
If nobody else has one handy I'll get the measurement by the weekend.

Just make your own. Nothing easier then that. A piece of flat stock and a couple of longer bolts. That's all.
Any home improvement store will sell the hardware.

Also if anyone else has one around for measuring, I will take all submissions.

While we're discussing this area of the car; how hard/soft are the rack bushings? Seems like a potential area to use polyurethane...but I failed to give them a poke when I was in there flushing the PS fluid.
