Post Hazet Tools

Where is the best place to buy online the special Hazet tools required to chance the front struts on the 993?

TIA

You can also use a deep socket and cut/grind a opening in the side. I just did this and it worked fine. The torque range is low enough that the socket is still strong enough to do the job. I used a craftsman socket and cut approx. 1/2" from bottom to 1/2" from top and a little less than 1/2 around. Dremel die grinder works great and a standard 90deg. allen wrench fits fine.

Might try a company called "Zelenda" - long-time (over 20 years) supplier of Porsche and other German car tools. Don't think they have a web site but phone is 718-896-2288.

Hi JF,

a bit of a late reply this, but are you in the US or UK ??

I recall emailing you in the past, but forget where you were, sorry

If you are in UK/Europe, you could try Gert.
Alternatively I have a contact for a Hazet supplier in the UK.
I have a Hazet tool catalogue & price list at home that they sent me

Email me if you haven't resolved this already and want the number.

Cheers,
John.
