Under extreme conditions, such as road racing and autocross, negative camber is required to keep as much of the tire's contact patch on the road as possible. Stock suspension mounts will not allow you to achieve the necessary amount of negative camber required for this type of performance driving. Rennline's sealed camber plates incorporate FK motorsports spherical bearings and eliminate the indistinct feedback associated with factory rubber mounts. Comes as a set of two. Why are Rennline's strut mounts the best ?
* Drastically increased bearing life due to the integrated factory GT3 weather seals.
* FK Motorsport Teflon-lined spherical bearings.
* Rigid bearing mount, not clipped in like some products available.
* Specially machined upper nut to allow clearance for maximum negative camber settings.
* Allows for up to 1.25 degrees of added negative camber.
* Special tool included to hold strut shaft from turning when tightening upper nut.
* Can be used with all factory and aftermarket struts, Including factory non adjustable units.
* Webbed machined base for light weight and superior strength.
* Fully rebuildable
* CNC machined 6061 anodized aluminum construction with stainless steel hardware.
Note: When using factory non adjustable struts with factory spring seats, weather seal must be remove

Why are important / when to replace
Correct ride height & geometry: Porsche marks springs with tolerance codes; the correct compensating plate thickness is used to achieve the intended static height and suspension geometry. Using the wrong thickness (or missing the plate) can shift ride height by a few millimeters and slightly alter camber/handling.
Proper spring seating: the plate centers and supports the spring top so the spring doesn’t “walk” or sit unevenly on the top mount — missing/damaged plates can allow the spring to sit off-centre and introduce noise or uneven wear.
During any strut/spring/top-mount job: always inspect/replace these plates when you disassemble the strut. They’re inexpensive and commonly replaced as part of a suspension refresh.
Common issues and symptoms
Clunking or popping noises over bumps or in turns if the spring isn’t seating properly (plate missing, crushed, corroded or installed with wrong orientation).
Incorrect ride height / slight handling changes if the wrong thickness is used (3.0 mm vs 6.5 mm can change static height and the intended spring preload/stack). Enthusiast threads explicitly call out these two thicknesses and their effect.
Corrosion / physical damage: over time OE plates can corrode or get deformed during disassembly — they’re cheap and often replaced because removal can damage them.

Porsche Front Shock Absorber Parts | Design911 Suspension Components for Comfort, Control & Handling Precision
Front shock absorber parts are crucial to your Porsche’s suspension system, ensuring smooth ride quality, consistent wheel contact, and stable handling. Working together with coil springs, dampers, and mounting components, these parts absorb road impacts and reduce vibration — keeping your Porsche composed and responsive in all driving conditions. A well-maintained front shock absorber assembly delivers the precise steering feedback, grip, and comfort expected from a high-performance vehicle.
At Design911, we offer a wide selection of front shock absorber parts, including mounts, top bearings, bump stops, dust covers, washers, and hardware kits. Each component is designed for perfect fitment, durability, and performance. Whether for routine servicing, restoration, or suspension upgrades, our range ensures your Porsche’s suspension system remains balanced, refined, and road-ready.
What Do Front Shock Absorber Parts Do?
Front shock absorber parts form a critical link in your suspension assembly, helping the dampers and springs function effectively while maintaining chassis balance.
Core Functions:
• Support the shock absorber assembly and maintain correct positioning.
• Reduce noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) from road impacts.
• Allow smooth, controlled compression and rebound of the suspension.
• Protect the shock absorber from dust, dirt, and fluid contamination.
• Ensure consistent ride height and suspension performance.
Each part plays a vital role in maintaining Porsche’s signature blend of agility, precision, and comfort.
Why Do Front Shock Absorber Parts Fail or Degrade?
Continuous movement, heat, and exposure to the elements cause front suspension components to wear or deteriorate over time.
Common Causes of Failure Include:
• Perished rubber mounts or bushings reducing shock absorption.
• Corroded bolts or mounting plates affecting alignment.
• Cracked or split dust covers allowing dirt ingress.
• Worn bearings causing creaking or uneven damping.
• Age-related material fatigue reducing effectiveness.
When these parts fail, symptoms can include knocking noises, uneven ride height, poor steering feel, or harsh suspension response — all indicators that replacement is needed to restore performance and comfort.
Why Replace or Upgrade Your Porsche Front Shock Absorber Parts?
Replacing worn components restores your suspension’s performance and ensures precise steering and comfort. Upgrading to reinforced or performance-spec parts improves chassis response and durability, especially for spirited driving or track use.
Key Benefits:
• Restores smooth ride quality and suspension balance.
• Improves steering accuracy and road feedback.
• Reduces vibration, noise, and harshness.
• Constructed from high-quality, corrosion-resistant materials.
• Fits Porsche 911, 944, 968, Boxster, Cayman, Cayenne, Macan, and Panamera
models.
• Ideal for servicing, restorations, or suspension performance upgrades.
Design911’s Porsche front shock absorber parts combine precision engineering and strength — ensuring your suspension performs at its best for both everyday driving and high-performance conditions.
Highlights
• Premium Porsche front shock absorber mounts, bearings, and
kits.
• Designed for precision fitment and damping efficiency.
• Reduces vibration, noise, and suspension wear.
• Engineered for both comfort and performance.
• Compatible with classic and modern Porsche models.
• Perfect for maintenance, restoration, or handling upgrades.
