Evening,
Somebody here will know...
I have bought a a crashed Porsche 997, it went off on track and appears to be near side front as the first impact and then down the whole side.
It needs lights bumper wing radiators and rear quarter panel, seat and door airbags. That is the easy fix, however;
The car appears to sit low near side front wheel (rear tyre is flat) by a couple of inches, it is obvious when you look at it
I have jacked up the car and placed it on blocks of wood it is on a gravel drive so not perfectly flat but nigh on.
If i measure hub to ground the two sides are the same
Wheel arch to ground the two sides are the same.
Various positions on the hub / suspension arms to the top of the shock mount are all there or thereabouts.
Gravel drive is small stones set into a plastic grid so there is no sinking.
The shock moves freely using a jack under the hub.
Shock is dry.
There is no obvious damage to the suspension arms, or chassis.
With no weight on the suspension the height is the same left to right once you put weight on it the left appears to sink further.
Any suggestions as to what might be out/broken here ?
thanks
