Hey gents. I swapped over to a 996RS suspension and as such no longer need my spare set of 996GT2/GT3/Cup front assemblies. These are lightly used but in excellent condition. Brand new OEM bearings were just installed and as such these need absolutely nothing, simply bolt on and go. Included are the uprights with installed bearings and hubs, speed sensors, and also the rather expensive OEM tension bolts and hub nuts. For anyone considering doing a RWD conversion to their car, this is the proper way to correct the front geometry. These uprights are used on all 996GT2/3 models along with the 996Cup. Part number is 996.341.657.91 for the left and 996.341.658.91 for the right. The tension bolts are part number 996.341.131.90. Porsche is no longer manufacturing these uprights so they have become a bit of a white unicorn. $1995 plus shipping. Buyer responsible for the 3% paypal fee.

Nice. When swapping, are awd struts compatible with these, or do you need some for a C2? What about upper strut bearings at a different angle? Drop links?

Also, what makes these better than regular C2 stuff? Lowering spindle with less geometry change?

What all needs to change to make this work?

Drooling. But you already knew that. Lol.

JRZ/Moton/MCS struts are compatible with both this upright and the AWD upright as they use an adapter sleeve for the AWD application. OEM 996TT struts are not compatible with these uprights, you need GT2/3 specific struts and upper strut bearings/mounting plates. I have a set of JRZ Motorsport upper monoball mounting plates (see pic below) to use with these upright if anyone is interested. These can be flipped for more camber. $250 for the pair.

Since these uprights were originally used on the 996Cup, they utilize a substantially larger bearing than on the C2. I am not 100% familiar with the pickup points on the C2 upright and as such can't comment on a comparison.

When they line up like that it always does cause the thought of "Perhaps I left $500 on the table", I will be shopping for a set at some point this year for sure if you hear of another set that shows up here or there.

I'll let you know if I come across another set. I had 2 other sets of these and they both sold last month to fellow rennlisters. This was my last pair.
