Hi,
I've used the search function but can't seem to find the answer.
Can anyone tell me the Porsche part number for the front gt3 lower control arms that would fit my cayman R?
Is it this:
986996FrACA
Anything else that I'll need to make these work on my stock R? Just looking for some more negative camber for even tire wear on track days.
Thanks!

That's not a Porsche part number... it's some website's internal stock number, more or less an abbreviation for "986 and 996 Front Adjustable Control Arms"
You're looking for a 996 part number and since the Cayman uses a thicker thrust arm bushing you'll need spacers to mount the thrust arm. The OEM 996 GT3 control arms are difficult to find these days so you may consider using the Tarrett arms, which are very close to OEM (if equipped with the rubber bushings) and are legal as an OEM substitute in club/spec racing.

Thanks Zach. That Sku is from the suncoast website. They look to have them in stock. Do I need the thrust arms as well or can I just get away with the GT3 LCA?

Don't get the thrust arms, just get the spacer adapters. That's what everyone runs. Tarett sells them for $40 a set.
