Wheel Bearing Position
The wheel bearing has been lowered 20mm. This raises the car while simultaneously delivering multiple advantages.
Geometry correction, the angle of the lower control arm is moved back into the optimal range
Ground clearance is increased, everything is raised including the lower control arm, swaybar drop link, and tie rod
Tire scrub is reduced, enhancing directional stability
Ride height is increased without compromising rebound travel (droop)
Strut Mount
The strut mounting ears are raised. This keeps the strut in the sweet spot balancing compression and rebound travel. Use Safari Uprights with standard 993/964 turbo front struts, or extended struts if raising aggressively.
Raising the car with stock uprights merely extends the strut and compromises rebound travel at the expense of ride quality, handling, and ground contact over uneven terrain. There is even the risk of strut damage due to “topping out”.
Bump Steer Correction
The steering knuckle is modeled after the RS upright for bump steer correction. Use our Safari uprights in combination with GT2 type tie rods.
RS Swaybar Compatible
Our safari uprights are a perfect match with the adjustable RS swaybar. With increased ride height comes a higher center of mass and typically non-stock spring rates. We recommend using the adjustable RS swaybars to allowing tuning of roll stiffness and balance. The drop link attachments on our Safari uprights are at the correct height to fit the RS swaybar while using stock length drop links.
C2/ C4 Compatible
Our Safari Uprights are compatible with both.
