Carrera jack points - part number?

[Flojo]

Hello,
did some searching, also parts catalogue, but could not find the part number for the Carrera jack points that are OEM welded to the chassi.

[LUFTKUL]

I don't know the part #, but they aren't on all Carreras. My '84 doesn't have them, but my '88 did.

I found "bracket for jacking point": 911-507-535-00 (left), and 911-501-836-00 (right) in the PET (page 200). These are listed there, but there is no picture/drawing. This seems like it could be it, but...good luck!

Thanks Lyle, found it in the 87-catalogue.
Yes indeed, no picture.
Asked my parts dealer if they are spare purchaseable.

@Luftkul, I was planning on adding them to my SC as I'm fed up with messing around with pads and properly setting the lift arms not damaging the floor and so on.

What did you find out Flojo? Can they be purchased?

flojo..i have been using simple floor jack and lift the car by the engine for over 35 year never had to use the body to lift 911;-)

The only thing you will do is damage the original Porsche undercoating...which is held pretty good on all 911`s...

just my thought to your being fed up lifting the car on the floor;-)

The left side 911-507-535-01
The right side 911-501-836-00-GRV

They will have to be ordered out of Germany. Allow 3 weeks

For those that have a lift, they would be very helpful and a big time saver.

Hi Dan ..in a shop when you have a lift you can use the sway bar bracket place and front body edge..never need to worry about the floor....All i am saying is once you start welding into the original body and removing the Porsche undercoating you are asking for a trouble , rust.....
Any time i had to replace the broken sway bar bracket in the shop i did not like the works of some shmuks who used welding with fire-tools-torch The best is arc welding ..or spot welding
that is my take on this;-)
Luftkul...
The Lifting bracket were introduced in 1987 Carrera.....

My ‘78 has 10mm threaded holes at each corner by the outboard seams. These were plugged by the factory and coated. I just countersunk the bolts+wide washer into standard hokey pucks and bolted them. Cannot remember which ones I had to drill slightly off center. One I also had to but a slight notch to go over the seam. Dry fit will tell you.
Nice thing is that it still give you room to slide the jack in on a lowered car.
Just an alternative.

I did exactly as Johan did. Must be a Canadian thing...... the rears needed a bit of a chamfer to fit neatly and flat against the pan, or you could drill the hole off center. Pics in my thread:
