I am going to be replacing the front strut assemblies on my 987.

The manufacturers instruction is to replace the brake caliper mounting bolts that need to be removed to take the struts off.

I don't know why they recommend replacement bolts every time they are removed, no mention of them being 'stretch' bolts ?


I managed to find them at Eurocarparts at what appears to be a sensible price:

OE Quality caliper bolt M12x72x1.5 | Euro Car Parts

OE Quality caliper bolt M12x72x1.5 at the lowest UK prices from Euro Car Parts UK’s No.1 for Car Accessories, Car Styling & Car Care. Buy today Online, In store or by Phone + Branches Nationwide – Next Day UK Free Delivery.
www.eurocarparts.com www.eurocarparts.com

Wondered if this might be of use to anyone else contemplating a similar project.
 
Good point, but they are plus VAT and want an additional £6.95 delivery for 4 x bolts though.

Everywhere else I could find them were charging £9 - £10 per bolt.
 
That's great value !

Unfortunately already ordered a set from Eurocarparts for tomorrow.

At some point I plan to replace the front suspension, so just getting the bits I need together in advance.
