Spring plates
Upgrade your Porsche’s rear torsion-bar suspension with this premium adjustable spring plate set. Supplied as a pair (left & right), these plates are designed for the Porsche 924S (1986-88), 944 (1985/2-94) and 968 (1992-95). The adjustable mounting allows precise ride height and torsion‐bar preload indexing — ideal for restoration, lowered stance, performance upgrades or improved handling. Install provides a firmer rear end, better geometry retention and a more consistent driving feel under load.

What This Product Does:
- In a torsion-bar rear suspension design (used on these Porsche models), the spring plate is the mount at which the torsion bar ends and transmits spring load into the chassis/suspension mount. The bushings and plate determine how well the torsion bar is anchored, how consistent ride height is, and how the rear axle reacts under load.
- An adjustable spring plate adds the ability to fine-tune ride height and torsion bar preload (via indexing) without extensive disassembly. That means you can more easily correct for lowering, increased spring rate, or varying loads.
- Good spring plates help maintain consistent rear geometry (camber, toe), correct ride height, minimal unwanted movement and crisp behaviour under load (cornering, acceleration, braking).
Symptoms & Signs Of Wear / When You Need To Replace Or Upgrade:
- Rear ride height is inconsistent, one side sits lower/higher, or you cannot achieve correct ride height despite adjusting torsion bar indexing.
- Rear suspension feels vague, “loose” in corners, or the car doesn’t handle the rear end with precision — the torsion bar mount may be worn or deflecting.
- Uneven or accelerated tyre wear on rear tyres (especially inner/outer shoulders) due to shifting geometry under load.
- When lowering the car or upgrading suspension, you cannot set ride height or preload easily because you are limited by fixed plates. An adjustable version reduces that limitation.
- Visual signs of degradation: bushings in the spring plate may be cracked, collapsed or show metal-to-metal contact; the plate may show corrosion, wear marks or may be the non-adjustable version but you’d prefer adjustability.
Why Replacement / Upgrade Matters:
- For road use, upgrading to an adjustable set means your rear suspension is easier to tune, more consistent, and likely to hold its geometry better.
- If you’ve modified your car (lowered, stiffer springs, wider tyres, track use), the factory non-adjustable plates become a weak link — the upgrade ensures the rest of the suspension upgrades perform as intended.
- A well-mounted spring plate reduces unwanted movement, improves ride height accuracy, and improves stability and tyre life.
- Replacing old or worn spring plates renews the rear suspension foundation — this is especially valuable in cars of this era, where wear and age may have compromised original components.
- From a resale/restoration perspective: an adjustable plate set signals that you’ve invested in chassis tuning and correct mounting hardware.

• 5 minute torsion bar changes
• Fast and easy ride-height adjustment
• Accepts standard bushings
Setup is fast and easy
If you've ever re-indexed torsion bars to correct ride height, you can really appreciate the benefits of QuickChange.
Used in combination with our QuickChange Torsion Bars and Polybronze bearings, this spring plate allows rapid replacement or re-indexing of torsion bars.
QuickChange Torsion Bar Changeout
QuickChange Torsion Bars can be extracted through the QuickChange Spring Plate without removing any bolts. Alignment settings are maintained. You don't even need to remove the wheel from the car. Changing torsion bars is a 5 minute per side operation.
Can be used with any 944 torsion bar and bushing that fits factory spring plates (not included)
However 944 QuickChange Torsion bars and 944 PolyBronze Bearings are required to use torsion bar extraction features.

Porsche reference no: 477501089

Porsche 944 / S / S2 / Turbo 1982-91
Porsche 968 1992-95
These thrust bearings are a welded steel construction with electrogalvanized and powder coated finish. They connect the rear axle tube to the body. After the years, the original thrust bearings are usually worn out and porous. There are no original replacements, and thus an overly spongy rear axle is a problem on many 924-968s.
This rigid version is suitable for both street use and motorsports.
Its advantages:
• Wearless design
• More directly guided rear axle and therefore less spongy handling.
• Elimination of rumbling noises due to worn out rubber thrust bearings.
• Excellent build quality
Thanks to the design, installation is possible without removing the rear axle!

Why do Porsche Spring plates matter?
Spring plates sit between the torsion bars or springs and the rear suspension on many Porsche models, and play a key role in how the rear of the car moves, feels and can be adjusted. Over time the plates and especially their bushes can wear or corrode, which affects how smoothly the suspension articulates and how accurately ride height and geometry can be set. Renewing tired components helps the rear suspension work freely again and supports precise setup for road or track use.
- Keep the rear of your Porsche feeling consistent and controlled
- Support accurate ride height and geometry adjustment during setup
- Reduce unwanted noises from worn bushes and sticking movement
- Help maintain long-term enjoyment and potential resale appeal of classic Porsche models

When should you review or replace your Porsche spring plates?
Checking spring plates and their bushes during suspension work helps you spot wear, damage or age-related deterioration before it affects comfort, refinement or leads to more expensive repairs later on.
- Existing parts are worn, cracked, noisy, corroded or seized
- You notice knocking, squeaking, binding, inconsistent ride height or harshness over bumps
- Rear alignment or ride-height adjustment has become difficult or unstable
- You are carrying out a wider suspension refresh, geometry setup or restoration
If any of these apply, it is a good time to review your spring plates and replace anything that is past its best so your Porsche stays dependable and enjoyable to drive.
