Diagram ref no 8
The front auxiliary support frame forms a vital part of the
front suspension assembly, providing a secure mounting point for the control
arms and suspension components. The rubber bushes absorb road shocks and
vibration while allowing the suspension to articulate smoothly. Over time,
exposure to age, heat, oil contamination and repeated suspension movement
causes the original rubber to harden, crack or compress, leading to degraded
handling and increased noise.
Replacing worn suspension bushes restores the correct geometry of the front suspension, improves steering accuracy and helps return the smooth, predictable handling characteristics that early Porsche 911 and 912 models are renowned for.
Whether you're carrying out a concours restoration, rebuilding the front suspension or replacing ageing rubber components, this OE Match bush provides an excellent solution for maintaining factory-style suspension performance.
What Does the Front Auxiliary Support Frame Bush Do?
This rubber bush cushions and supports the connection between the front auxiliary support frame and the suspension assembly.
Its primary functions include:
- Supporting the front suspension assembly.
- Isolating road vibration and noise.
- Allowing controlled suspension movement.
- Maintaining correct suspension geometry.
- Reducing stress on suspension components.
- Improving steering stability and ride comfort.
A healthy suspension bush helps ensure the suspension operates smoothly while maintaining precise wheel alignment.
