What are the symptoms to this vs tie rods? Is an alignment required? Thx

Thank you for the comment. Symptoms to this is a very obvious thump when going over speed bumps or really just uneven surface areas. It feels like the front is bottoming out a little. Tie rods- I would normally feel some play. There would be loose components when braking, steering wheel vibrations etc. Don’t forget to like the video and consider subscribing if you haven’t already.

Have you checked your tires? Cayman and Carreras sit lower and have positive camber so tires go quicker.

Great video, but there are only metric bolts on a Porsche ;)

True, but some fractional wrenches are very close in in dimensional tolerance and feel lucky for not having to use Wentworth (British Standard) too .
