Search using the TRW part numbers that Smallblock provided.
Amazon also confirms this for the 986/TRW JTC1186 part:

Wow
That is a really good price, I am replacing both mine this winter
BTW I have been told the 987 is an exact fit and much tougher for our 986 cars

I guess everybody is getting these as both part numbers are out of stock now...

I noticed they were out of stock, once I actually placed the order. I prefer amazon at that price ($122 each for TRW1316) so I don't mind waiting. I'll share once they are back in stock and ship out.

Porsche 987 part number: 98733104302 and 98733104303

Porsche 986 part number: 98633104307, 98633104306, 98633104305, 98633104304
is equal to TRW JTC1186, EAN Number 3322937753246
The 987 part seems to be a little cheaper than the 986 TRW part. Around 85 euro each.

Do you have the TRW number for the front control arm? I believe it is part # 99634104306
Thanks,

So wait... when I look up JTC1316 (987 part) on Amazon, it says it won't fit my 2003 Boxster S. I can safely ignore that and assume it's a by-the-book warning and not actual fitment?

According to some on the forum, for the backs at least, you can use the 987 part, which is (according to those same folks) is a superior part. I actually ordered both of the out of stock amazon versions (986 and 987), and the jtc1316/987 is what came in stock and shipped so I will be putting them on.
I will report back but it might be a while...

Actually I was just checking my Amazon and *both* the 986 and 987 came in stock and got shipped... my plan was to cancel one after the other one shipped.. They are both supposed to be here by tomorrow, so I can take some pictures post and see if we can figure out the differences...

Steve, Good thing returns are so easy with Amazon.
Looking forward to seeing what you find by looking at the parts side by side. See if the ball joint feels/moves the same.

This may be a dumb question, but what are you referring to as "Tar Strips"

Basically, they're expansion gaps evenly spaced in the roadway where a tough but pliable material (tar-based, I guess) can expand and compress with the weather conditions. They make the rhythmic double thud as first your front, then rear tires go over them at speed. The liquid tar that is used to fill in cracks as well as cold patches used on pot holes are also culprits. Infrastructure is on the out nation wide it seems.

That makes sense. I never heard them referred to as tar strips

Steve,
What part of FL are you in?
It appears I am going to have to do my rears (on my 2001 base) and I can't decide to pony up and pay my indy or tackle the job myself.
Any chance you could give me your impression as to how difficult it was after you swap yours out?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions you may have.

After reading about the install on here I don't think it is a really hard diy job, I didn't have time to do mine, but, it only took my local dealer 45 minutes.

I am in Lake City, about an hour west of Jacksonville and about 45 minutes north of Gainesville. Lake City is where i-10 and i-75 meet although I am a little south east of that intersection.
Where are you? Close by?
