What This Product Does
The kit renews the rubber mounting and associated securing components at the front strut bearing assembly. It combines rubber bearings with support washers, sleeves or bushes, locking plates and nuts for refurbishment of both front strut mountings.
The rubber elements provide a compliant connection within the mounting assembly, helping to isolate vibration. The accompanying sleeves and hardware locate and retain the components. This is a mounting repair kit rather than a replacement shock absorber or complete strut.
Functions
- Replaces ageing rubber elements in the front strut mounting.
- Renews the associated supporting and retaining hardware.
- Provides mounting repair components for two front struts.
Technical Details
- Earlier-version front strut mounting repair kit.
Symptoms of Fault
- Knocks or clunks around the front mounting points over uneven surfaces.
- Increased vibration or a less settled feel from the front suspension.
- Perished rubber, visible cracking or movement within the mounting assembly.
These signs can also originate from dampers, suspension joints or other bushes. Inspect the assembly before deciding which components need renewal.
Why Replacement Matters
Renewing deteriorated mounting components addresses wear at the strut attachment rather than leaving old rubber and fixings in place during suspension work. Inspect the adjoining mounting surfaces and supporting parts at the same time, particularly when refurbishing an early car or replacing its dampers.
FAQs
- Is one kit sufficient for both front struts?
Yes. The supplied kit coverage is two shock struts. - Should the mountings be inspected when changing dampers?
Yes. Check the rubber elements and retaining hardware so worn components are not reused. - Is an alignment check needed afterwards?
Have the geometry checked following work that disturbs the strut mounting position.

Maintain the correct operation of your Porsche's front suspension with this OE Match Front Shock Absorber Top Tab Washer, manufactured as a direct replacement. Produced to OE-style specifications, this tab washer is designed to secure the front shock absorber top mounting hardware, helping to prevent the retaining nut from loosening and ensuring the suspension assembly remains correctly fastened during operation.

Diagram Ref No 55
The top tab washer is a small but essential locking component within the front suspension assembly. Constant vibration, suspension movement, repeated servicing, and age can cause the original washer to become bent, fatigued, corroded, or damaged, reducing its ability to lock the mounting hardware securely. Replacing the tab washer during shock absorber or suspension maintenance helps maintain the integrity of the strut assembly and provides long-term reliability. This OE Match component is ideal for routine maintenance, suspension repairs, and Porsche restoration projects.
What This Product Does:
- Locks the front shock absorber retaining nut in position.
- Helps prevent mounting hardware from loosening due to vibration.
- Maintains the security of the front suspension assembly.
- Supports safe and reliable suspension operation.
- Replaces worn, bent, or corroded original tab washers.
- Ideal during shock absorber or suspension rebuilds.
- Provides an OE-style fit and dependable quality.
Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
- Bent or damaged locking tabs.
- Corrosion or excessive surface wear.
- Washer no longer securely locking the retaining nut.
- Signs of movement in the shock absorber mounting hardware.
- Suspension noise caused by loose upper mounting components.
- Damage caused during previous removal or installation.
- Excessive wear from repeated servicing.
- Age-related deterioration of the original component.
Why Replacement Matters:
- The front shock absorber top tab washer is a critical locking component that helps secure the upper shock absorber mounting hardware. By preventing the retaining nut from loosening under normal driving conditions, it contributes to the safety, stability, and long-term reliability of the suspension assembly.
- A worn or damaged tab washer may no longer provide adequate locking force, increasing the risk of loose suspension components, unwanted noise, or premature wear. Replacing the washer restores the correct locking function and helps ensure the suspension remains securely assembled. Manufactured as a direct replacement and produced to OE-style specifications, this OE Match tab washer provides the correct fit, dependable quality, and durability required for Porsche maintenance, suspension repairs, and restoration projects.
