OE Match front suspension king pin repair kit engineered as a direct replacement for the original Porsche repair kit used on early Porsche 356 models. This kit contains the components needed to restore proper fit and function to the front king pin assembly - a pivotal part of the front suspension.
Fits:
Porsche 356 All Models
The kit provides all necessary internal components to refurbish the front king pin assembly - including bushes, seals, and related hardware - ensuring the steering knuckle remains properly supported and aligned. As part of the suspension’s pivoting mechanism, the king pin allows the wheel assembly to articulate smoothly while maintaining caster and camber alignment under load.
Function:
• Restores front suspension pivot integrity: Repairs worn king pin interfaces to eliminate excessive play
• Improves steering precision: Tightens up slack in the front axle for more responsive steering
• Enhances wheel alignment stability: Helps maintain proper geometry under load and over bumps
• Reduces noise and vibration: Worn king pin components can produce clunking and uneven steering feedback if not serviced.
Proper function of the king pin assembly is key to predictable handling and long tyre life on vintage Porsche front suspension systems.

Front Suspension Link Pin Seal
Sold each - 2 required per car
The Porsche 356 front suspension link pin seal
is a critical component designed to protect the link pin assembly from dirt,
moisture, and debris. Fitted to the front suspension of all Porsche 356 models,
this seal helps retain lubrication while preventing premature wear of the king
and link pin system — a cornerstone of the 356’s precise and lightweight
handling.
Fits:
- Porsche 356 1950-55
- Porsche 356A 1955-59
- Porsche 356B 1959-63
- Porsche 356C 1963-65

Though small, link pin seals play a vital role in suspension longevity. Over time, age, heat cycles, and road contamination cause seals to harden, crack, or shrink, allowing grease to escape and contaminants to enter the suspension joint. Replacing worn seals is essential to maintaining correct steering feel, suspension geometry, and long-term component health on your classic Porsche 356.
What Does a Porsche 356 Link Pin Seal Do?
The front suspension link pin seal
sits at the outer ends of the link pins, forming a protective barrier between
the suspension joint and the external environment. Its purpose is to:
- Retain grease within the link pin assembly
- Prevent ingress of water, grit, and road debris
- Reduce wear on link pins and bushes
- Maintain smooth, controlled front suspension movement
Without an effective seal, metal-on-metal wear accelerates rapidly, leading to looseness, uneven tyre wear, and compromised steering precision.
Why Do Front Suspension Link Pin Seals Fail?
On Porsche 356 models, link pin seals commonly
fail due to:
- Age-related rubber hardening and cracking
- Grease contamination and degradation
- Long-term storage without maintenance
- Exposure to moisture and road debris
Even low-mileage vehicles are prone to seal failure simply due to age. Original or old replacement seals may no longer provide adequate protection, making proactive replacement essential during suspension servicing or restoration work.
When Should You Replace Porsche 356 Link Pin Seals?
You should replace the Porsche 356 front
suspension link pin seals when:
- Performing a front suspension rebuild or overhaul
- Replacing link pins, bushes, or king pins
- Grease leakage is visible around the link pin area
- Steering feels vague or inconsistent
- Restoring or recommissioning a long-stored vehicle
Replacing seals early helps prevent costly suspension wear and preserves the original driving characteristics Porsche 356 models are renowned for.
At Design911, we supply high-quality Porsche suspension components to support accurate restorations and reliable classic driving.
