Front Suspension Wear and Replacement
On the Porsche 993, common failure points in the front suspension include the
control arms, ball joints, tie rods and bellows. As these components wear, you may notice clunking over bumps, loose or vague steering, uneven tire wear, or steering wheel vibration. Because the front suspension system is highly interconnected, wear in one part often accelerates the deterioration of other components.
To address this, we’ve developed a complete wishbone arms, ball joints & tie rods designed to restore handling, performance, and safety. This kit includes new front control arms, ball joints, tie rods and bellows ensuring a comprehensive solution rather than piecemeal repairs.

Why Control Arms Matter
Control arms serve as a critical link between the suspension and the subframe. Their hinged design allows the suspension to articulate as the vehicle absorbs bumps or navigates turns. On vehicles with independent suspension, like the 993, multiple arms and connection points contribute to better ride comfort and stability.
As bushings and joints within a control arm wear out, the suspension can begin to feel loose or unstable. While some designs allow individual components to be serviced, many control arms require complete replacement to restore proper function.
Symptoms of Control Arm Failure
Signs that your control arms may need replacement include:
- Excessive play where the arms connect to the subframe or knuckle
- Clunking or knocking noises from the suspension
- Uneven tire wear
- Difficulty achieving proper wheel alignment
- Steering wheel vibration at highway speeds
- Wandering or pulling sensation through the steering wheel

Track Rod Inner Joint. Porsche 964 C2 / TURBO SET OF 2 (we recommend these should be replaced in pairs)
The steering rack controls the front wheels by means of two track rods, terminated by replaceable joints - the "Track Rod Ends", attached to the swivel hubs. These will eventually wear, leading to problems with steering and handling, as well as being a failure point on the UK MOT and presumably on the statutory inspections in other countries.Fits:

Renew your Porsche 964’s front steering linkage with this genuine inner track rod joint. Designed for the 964 C2 (1989-93) and Turbo 3.3/3.6L (1991-93), this joint provides the crucial connection between the steering rack and the track rod’s inner end, ensuring precise direction input and maintaining proper steering geometry. Whether you’re restoring, upgrading, or maintaining your 964, this joint is a direct-fit component that restores confidence in the front end.

What This Product Does:
- The track-rod assembly transmits steering input from the steering rack/column to the wheels. The inner joint is a critical pivot point enabling the rod to align with changing suspension and steering geometry.
- This inner joint ensures that the steering rack’s motion is translated precisely to the front wheels, without unwanted play or slack in the linkage.
- Because the joint allows articulation yet must resist lateral movement and play, it contributes to steering precision, directness of input, and accurate response of the front wheels.
- A properly functioning inner joint means the front wheels respond accurately to the driver’s steering input and hold correct alignment/tie-rod geometry under load (braking, cornering).
Signs Of Wear Or Failure:
- Steering play or vague steering feel — the front end lacks sharpness, there may be a slight dead-zone or loose feeling at the steering wheel.
- Clunking, knocking or clicking noises from the front end when going over bumps or when turning the steering wheel, indicating excessive movement in the joint.
- Uneven or rapid tyre wear on the front wheels — because the tie-rod geometry is compromised, alignment may drift under load.
- Delayed or imprecise steering response — the car may feel less direct or “mushy” when steering.
- On inspection: visible play in the joint, torn rubber boots, corrosion or visible wear in the fork end.
Why Replacement / Upgrade Matters:
- A worn inner joint undermines the entire steering chain: even if other components (outer rod ends, rack) are new, a weak inner joint will allow slack, reduce precision and degrade response.
- On a Porsche 964, which is performance-oriented and often driven spiritedly, steering feel and precision are key. Replacing this joint ensures the driver retains direct feedback and control.
- Replacement improves safety and long-term reliability: worn joints can lead to much worse outcomes (mis-steering, alignment issues).
- It also maintains value: correctly replacing steering components is important for older collect- and performance cars — a well-maintained steering linkage is viewed positively.
- If the vehicle has been modified (wider tyres, lower suspension, track use), ensuring this inner joint is in good order is essential to getting maximum benefit from those upgrades.
