Hey guys I just recently ordered basically everything I need to fully rebuild the brakes and suspension in the front. I was wondering if anyone knew of any hardware/bolt kits or part numbers for all of the suspension bolts i.e, the A-arms, sway bars, coil over mounting locations. The previous owner seems to have destroyed basically every bolt and I’m looking to save the hassle and just refresh everything. Any advice helps as I’m still learning.
Cheers

Get the PET which you can download from Clarks Garage.com in their maintenance section. That gives all the dimensions of the bolts and grades. I get them from Belmetric bolt as they have some quality assurance that the hardware stores won't have. Bolt Depot might be good stuff also. The top bolt on the upright is special for adjusting camber and is available from Paragon Porsche or Pelican Parts. Buy at least grade 10.9 bolts for everything and lock nuts and washers also. Many of the 12mm bolts on the car are a finer thread than commonly found in hardware stores.
