There are several retrofit options, but a catch is that the inner diameter of where the rubber bushing goes must be the same as OEM Porsche. For example, the Meyle LCA has an inner diameter that is around 1mm or so bigger, and so the monoball cartridge retrofits don't work. If you have OEM GT3 LCA, it should be fine but I would check with the sellers of the cartridges to be sure (although for the price you could get a new inner end that may be rebuildable)

Sealed Monoball Set-Rennline, Inc.

Eccentric monoball (not really needed since you have adjustable LCA)

If you are getting GT3 style LCA then instead of retrofitting a cartridge, you can just gt a whole new end.
