Pelican Parts Order History

My file of 911 paperwork is missing and I need to know what torsion bars are in my car. I am thinking of having the dampers custom-valved. I need to see my history of past Pelican parts orders. To make this more complex, there are a couple of old email addresses I used for those orders that don't work anymore.

I spoke with a Pelican guy a couple of weeks ago, who said I can find all this on the website. I'm not seeing it. Anybody know how to look up old Pelican parts orders?

I wouldn't have installed monoballs on a street car, FWIW. I would however, install stiffer torsion bars and anti-sway bars. I am very happy with my late-Carrera sways and 22/29 T-bars.
Is this the right car? Same bars?

Very simple to find you order history. Click on the "Porsche" link at the top of the page, then click on "Order Status" on the top right. Enter your info, and voila, there you have it. My history back to 2008 is there.

Dude. Your politics are a bit twisted but you're a good friend. Thank you.

Upon further review, it appears we have more in common. Thanks, Dude. For doing my research for me, and for being an American who cares.

Lol. Dave really gave the right answer. I have a unique memory. Forget what I did last week, but remember you talking about suspensions.....

Nicely done.


It is funny how some cars that have up rated torsion bars can feel more supple on the street than cars that should be much smoother riding.

You don't need access to the email address, you just need to know it.

I've moved a few times since owning my car, so looking up old orders is always exciting.
