Porsche 996 911 Front Control Arm Replacement DIY (1999-2005 Porsche 911 Carrera)

►Replacing the front control arms on your Porsche 996 is one of the best things you can do to refresh and revitalize the way your Porsche handles. If you’re experiencing any popping, clunking, or clicking sounds while traveling over rough surfaces, it may be time to refresh your front suspension.

This is a comprehensive kit offered here at FCP Euro utilizing Meyle & TRW replacement parts including control arm and ball joint assemblies, ball joints, stabilizer bar links, tie rods, and steering rack bellows.

We recommend replacing all of these components if you have in excess of 80K miles on your vehicle and still have original components. We also encourage that you replace your control arm components if you are experiencing the following symptoms:

-Popping, clunking, or clicking sounds while traveling over bumps or dips in the road
-A disconnected feeling between the steering wheel and front end of the car
-Vehicle is slow to respond to steering inputs
-Vehicle wanders on the highway or will not drive straight
-Vehicle cannot be aligned properly due to play in the front suspension

You make the best tutorials on Youtube. Well filmed, clear and well explained and you also have a pleasant way of speaking. I hope you will post many more 996 videos.
