Thinking of getting an M030 kit for my 996 C2 2003. Inspection at PCT noted one of the covers missing on the front. I plan to do myself.

So whilst its in bits what else to change? I was thinking:-

- All bump stops and replace missing cover
- Front top mounts and bearings

Anything else?

Poly bush the front? I had that done on mine when I had the Koni FSDs, new springs and top mounts done on my 993

Depending upon mileage you may find some components are in good shape and can be transferred over. I assume the M030 kit comes with bushings for the roll-bars being different diameter. Check drop links too.

Essential to have 4 way alignment afterwards. If you really want ultimate setup then new rubber on each corner. First drive and it'll feel like a new car.

The boxed M030 kit comes with new bump stops and anti roll bar bushes.
When I had mine fitted I also changed front top mounts and bearings, coffin arms, anti roll bar drop links. I cannot recall if anything else was done.
