Wheel Alignment

Wheel alignment

Note:
^ In the 911 GT2, ABS (without PSM) is used as a control system!
^ After the wheel-alignment values are changed, the PSM-related work is therefore omitted in contrast to the 911 Turbo (996)!

Front-axle camber setting

Note:
^ Front-axle camber setting: Unlike the 911 Turbo (996), a basic camber adjustment is made by means of intermediate plates -arrow- on the 2-part control arm of the front axle for the 911 GT2.
^ A 1 mm thick adjustment plate is fitted as standard on the right and left in the 911 GT2 (M002 and M003)!
^ Check all wheels for clearance after adjustment and assembly work!

Control arm GT2





^ Basic camber setting through adjustment plates - arrow-
^ series = one 1 mm-thick adjustment plate
By using thicker adjusting shims, the 2-part control arms permit a correspondingly increased camber value to be obtained for circuit use.
In relation to this, observe also the note on the fitting of the diagonal control arm to the control arm GT2.

Camber fine adjustment





- The camber is adjusted by moving the spring strut transversely. For this purpose, loosen the three M8 fastening nuts -arrows- of the spring-strut mount. To shift the spring strut inwards or outwards -arrows-, remove the cover cap over the piston rod!

Camber/toe, rear axle





- As with the 911 Turbo (996), the wheel-alignment values on the rear axle are set at the toe eccentric -A- and at the camber eccentric -B-.
