Steering and Suspension: Testing and Inspection
Tests/Notes - GT2
NOTE: The tests and notes apply to the street version (base version) M002 and to the Club Sport version M003. Suspension alignment 911 GT2.
Lifting Platform/Test Stands
Ensure clearance of the spoiler(s) and side members when driving onto lifting platforms and wheel alignment platforms.
Wheel Alignment Platform
It is only possible to drive onto wheel alignment platforms if additional access ramps, for example 959 access aids, are used.
A platform without a sloped position is unsuitable.
Brake Test
Brake tests can only be carried out on roller-type test stands or plate test stands.
When driving onto the brake test stand, make sure to drive on as carefully as possible, especially during compression. This helps to prevent the vehicle from bottoming out.
Power Test
A power test is not permissible or possible.
