Diagram ref no 10

Manufactured to Porsche's original specifications, it ensures precise fitment, correct component positioning and reliable operation within the front suspension system. Ideal for suspension repairs, shock absorber servicing or replacing worn and damaged original components.

What Does This Part Do? – Functions
  • Load Distribution: Helps distribute suspension forces across the upper mounting assembly.
  • Mounting Support: Supports correct positioning of the front shock absorber components.
  • Suspension Stability: Helps maintain secure assembly and consistent suspension operation.
  • Component Protection: Reduces concentrated stress on associated mounting surfaces.
  • Original Fitment: Maintains Porsche factory suspension specifications.

Why Replace This Part?
Over time, the upper thrust ring can become worn, corroded or deformed due to repeated suspension movement, road impacts and operating loads. A damaged thrust ring may affect the correct seating of suspension components and compromise the integrity of the upper mounting assembly.

Replacing it with a genuine Porsche component helps restore proper fitment, load distribution and suspension reliability.

When to Replace This Part?
  • Physical Damage: Cracked, bent or deformed thrust ring.
  • Corrosion: Visible rust or material deterioration.
  • Suspension Noise: Unusual knocking or movement caused by worn mounting components.
  • Shock Absorber Repairs: During front shock absorber or top mount replacement.
  • Suspension Overhaul: When replacing associated worn or damaged mounting hardware.

Where Does It Fit on the Car?
Location: Front suspension – upper shock absorber mounting assembly.

The thrust ring is positioned in the upper section of the front shock absorber assembly, near the top mounting and bearing components.

It works alongside the associated suspension support components to maintain correct positioning and load distribution within the front strut assembly.
