Fits:
- Porsche 996 C2 3.4L 1997-08/01 - Cars with Sport suspension IX74 / M030
- Porsche 996 C2 3.6L 09/01-2005 - Cars with Sport suspension IX74 / M030
Diagram Ref No 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10, 11
What This Product Does:
- The front strut (shock absorber) top mount is the connection point where the top of the suspension strut attaches to the car’s body (strut tower). It supports loads from the spring and damper, allows steering pivot (via bearing) and isolates the mount from road noise/ vibration.
- Inside that mount is a bearing to handle rotation as the front wheels steer, and various hardware/plates to secure the assembly.
- Over time, rubber mounts can deteriorate, bearings develop wear or play, mounting plates may corrode, dust covers degrade — this leads to noise (clunks, creaks), reduced ride comfort, compromised steering feel or alignment issues.
- The overhaul kit replaces the top mount, bearing and all associated supporting hardware so you restore that upper strut interface.
When You Should Consider Replacement:
- Clunking, creaking, or knocking noises from the front suspension, especially when turning or going over bumps, often signal worn mounts or bearings.
- If the steering feels vague, resists turning, or doesn’t return to center smoothly, the top mount bearing may be binding or worn.
- A degraded mount allows unwanted movement between the strut and body, resulting in increased harshness, poor damping response, or “floaty” handling.
- Always replace the top mount and bearing when fitting new front shocks or coilovers.
- These are wear-matched components, and reusing old mounts can undermine the benefits of new suspension.
Why Replacement Matters:
- Restores handling & ride quality: On a performance car like a Porsche, the front suspension’s mount integrity is critical. A worn mount allows movement under load, reducing handling precision, altering tyre contact patches or upset steering response.
- Eliminates noise & NVH issues: A degraded top mount/bearing often causes unpleasant noises from the front suspension — creaks when turning the wheel, clunks over bumps, rattles from the top mount. Replacing rectifies the source.
- Pre-emptive maintenance saves cost: Since the front strut top mount is only easily accessed when removing the strut assembly or front tower, replacing the full mount kit while you’re working in that area is far more efficient than doing parts piecemeal later.
- Prevents escalation of damage: A failing top mount could lead to bearing failure, strut shaft wear, mount plate fatigue or body mount damage — addressing the mount prevents cascading failures.

This is for the shock absorber as an additional spring, also known as a bump stop, stopper or helper spring, designed for the front strut assemblies on Porsche 997 models equipped with the Sport chassis (option codes I030 or I480). Front axle suspension assembly for Porsche 996/997 (1998–2012), serving as a rubber stop or bushing integrated into the strut structure.
Fits:
Porsche 997 C2 / C2S / C4 / C4S MKI 2005-08 - Cars with SPORT chassis (Option code: I030/I480)
Porsche 997 C2 / C2S / C4 / C4S MKII 2009-12 - Cars with SPORT chassis (Option code: I030)
Porsche 996 C2 / C2S / C4 / C4S - Cars with SPORT chassis (Option code: IX74 / M030)
This acts as a progressive load-bearing element, cushioning the suspension when the strut nears full compression. It helps prevent harsh bottoming-out, protecting both the strut and chassis from damage during aggressive driving or over bumps.
These components maintain ride quality and handling performance, especially under heavy loading or spirited cornering, keeping the suspension linear and controlled.
Common Issues & Considerations
Wear or Deterioration: Over time, the rubber can compress, crack, or lose elasticity, diminishing its effectiveness. This can lead to harsher suspension impacts at full compression.
Noise or Harsh Feedback: A worn or hardened bump stop can transmit noise or impacts through the cabin, particularly over rough roads or speed bumps.
Sport vs. Standard Suspension: These parts are specific to Sport chassis models. Non-sport setups may not have the same bump stops or use different part numbers, so swapping or replacing must be done accordingly.

Designed for use on Porsche 986 Boxster, 987 Boxster and Cayman, and 996 Carrera models, the additional spring helps absorb impacts when the suspension approaches the end of its travel. This protects the shock absorber, suspension components and chassis from excessive loads while maintaining ride quality and vehicle control.
Over time, the additional spring can deteriorate due to age, compression cycles, road contamination and exposure to heat and moisture. Replacing worn bump stops is an important part of any suspension overhaul and helps restore factory suspension performance.
What Does the Shock Absorber Additional Spring Do?
The additional spring acts as a progressive cushion during suspension compression.
Its primary functions include:
- Absorbing extreme suspension loads
- Preventing metal-to-metal contact
- Protecting shock absorbers
- Protecting suspension components
- Improving ride comfort
- Maintaining suspension control
- Supporting chassis protection
- Reducing impact harshness
It forms an important part of the suspension system, especially during hard cornering, heavy braking or driving over uneven road surfaces.
Why Do Additional Springs Fail?
Additional springs are constantly subjected to compression, environmental exposure and ageing.
Common causes of failure include:
- Age-related foam deterioration
- Repeated compression cycles
- Road dirt contamination
- Water ingress
- Heat exposure
- UV degradation
- Physical damage during suspension servicing
- General wear and tear
Over time the material can crack, crumble, compress permanently or disintegrate completely.
Symptoms of a Worn Additional Spring
Common signs of failure include:
- Visible cracking or splitting
- Missing sections of foam material
- Deteriorated or crumbling bump stops
- Increased suspension harshness
- Knocking noises over bumps
- Reduced ride quality
- Suspension bottoming out
- Uneven suspension behaviour
Many worn bump stops are only discovered during shock absorber replacement or suspension inspections.
When Should the Additional Spring Be Replaced?
Replacement is recommended when:
- Installing new shock absorbers
- Carrying out suspension refurbishment
- The spring shows visible deterioration
- Suspension noises are present
- Ride quality has deteriorated
- The vehicle has covered high mileage
- Performing preventative maintenance
- Completing a Porsche restoration project
Most suspension specialists recommend replacing bump stops whenever dampers are renewed.
Why Replacement Matters
A worn or damaged additional spring can reduce suspension protection and negatively affect ride quality.
Benefits of replacement include:
- Improved suspension performance
- Better ride comfort
- Enhanced shock absorber protection
- Reduced suspension noise
- Improved vehicle control
- Prevention of suspension damage
- Restoration of factory ride characteristics
- Improved long-term reliability
Replacing this inexpensive component during suspension maintenance can significantly improve overall suspension performance.

Why are important / when to replace
Correct ride height & geometry: Porsche marks springs with tolerance codes; the correct compensating plate thickness is used to achieve the intended static height and suspension geometry. Using the wrong thickness (or missing the plate) can shift ride height by a few millimeters and slightly alter camber/handling.
Proper spring seating: the plate centers and supports the spring top so the spring doesn’t “walk” or sit unevenly on the top mount — missing/damaged plates can allow the spring to sit off-centre and introduce noise or uneven wear.
During any strut/spring/top-mount job: always inspect/replace these plates when you disassemble the strut. They’re inexpensive and commonly replaced as part of a suspension refresh.
Common issues and symptoms
Clunking or popping noises over bumps or in turns if the spring isn’t seating properly (plate missing, crushed, corroded or installed with wrong orientation).
Incorrect ride height / slight handling changes if the wrong thickness is used (3.0 mm vs 6.5 mm can change static height and the intended spring preload/stack). Enthusiast threads explicitly call out these two thicknesses and their effect.
Corrosion / physical damage: over time OE plates can corrode or get deformed during disassembly — they’re cheap and often replaced because removal can damage them.

As these bearings age, wear or contamination can lead to increased friction, noise and rough operation. Replacing worn bearings during suspension maintenance can help restore smooth movement and eliminate unwanted play or noises from the strut assembly.
What Does a Shock Absorber Groove Ball Bearing Do?
The groove ball bearing allows controlled, low-friction movement within the suspension and shock absorber mounting assembly.
On the front suspension, smooth bearing movement is particularly important as the strut assembly responds to both suspension travel and steering inputs.
A correctly functioning bearing helps provide:
- Smooth suspension movement
- Reduced friction within the strut assembly
- Consistent steering movement
- Correct operation of associated suspension components
- Reduced unwanted noise and resistance
Why Do Shock Absorber Bearings Fail?
Suspension bearings operate under continuous load and are exposed to vibration, impacts and changing road conditions. Over time, this can cause the bearing surfaces to deteriorate.
Common causes of failure include:
- Normal age and mileage
- Water and moisture contamination
- Dirt and road debris
- Corrosion
- Repeated suspension impacts
- Deterioration of bearing lubrication
- Wear from prolonged suspension movement
Once worn, the bearing may no longer rotate smoothly and can develop play, stiffness or noise.
When Should the Bearing Be Replaced?
Replacement should be considered if:
- Knocking or clicking noises are present
- Steering movement feels rough or notchy
- Creaking or grinding is heard from the suspension
- Excessive play is found in the bearing
- The bearing is seized or difficult to rotate
- Corrosion or physical damage is visible
- Shock absorbers or upper suspension mounts are being replaced
Because access often requires dismantling part of the strut assembly, replacing worn bearings while fitting new shock absorbers or suspension mounts can help avoid duplicated labour later.
Porsche 996 / 997 / Boxster 986 / 987 / Cayman 987C Suspension Bearings
Shock absorber bearings are an important but often overlooked part of the Porsche suspension system. While shock absorbers and springs control suspension movement, bearings and mounts allow the assembly to operate smoothly without excessive friction or unwanted movement.
Age, mileage and exposure to road conditions can gradually deteriorate these components. When carrying out a suspension overhaul on a Porsche 996, 997, Boxster 986, Boxster 987 or Cayman 987C, inspecting the associated bearings, top mounts, bump stops and protective components can help identify wear before the suspension is reassembled.
Replacing worn components together can restore a tighter, quieter and more precise suspension system.

Cars WITH SPORT Suspension M030Porsche 996 C2 1998-05
Diagram Ref No 3
The shock absorber is responsible for controlling suspension compression and rebound as the vehicle travels over bumps, dips and uneven road surfaces. Its supporting mount keeps the damper correctly positioned while transferring suspension loads into the vehicle structure and helping isolate unwanted vibration and harshness.
Front shock absorber mounts are continually subjected to road impacts, steering and cornering forces, vibration and repeated suspension movement. Over time, rubber isolation material and other parts of the mount can deteriorate, crack, deform or develop excessive play.
This OE Match Front Shock Absorber Supporting Mount provides a high-quality replacement for a worn, loose or damaged original component, helping restore correct damper support and predictable suspension behaviour.
What This Product Does:
- Secures and supports the front shock absorber assembly.
- Maintains correct positioning of the damper relative to the vehicle.
- Transfers suspension forces between the shock absorber and chassis.
- Supports controlled suspension compression and rebound.
- Helps isolate vibration and road harshness from the vehicle body.
- Reduces unwanted movement at the shock absorber mounting point.
- Helps maintain consistent front suspension behaviour.
- Supports predictable handling and vehicle stability.
- Works with the shock absorber and associated front suspension components.
- Replaces a worn, cracked, loose or damaged supporting mount.
- Provides an OE-style replacement for compatible Porsche applications.
Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
- Knocking or clunking from the front suspension.
- Rattling when travelling over rough roads.
- Noise when driving over bumps or potholes.
- Excessive movement at the shock absorber mounting point.
- Increased vibration or harshness transmitted into the body.
- Front suspension that feels loose or less controlled.
- Changes in steering or handling feel.
- Abnormal movement within the shock absorber assembly.
- Visible cracking or deterioration of rubber components.
- Rubber separating from the mount structure.
- Distortion or physical damage to the mount.
- Corrosion around the mount or associated hardware.
- Loose or damaged mounting fasteners.
- Deterioration discovered while replacing the front shock absorbers.
Why Replacement Matters:
- The shock absorber can only control suspension movement effectively when it is securely attached to the vehicle. If its supporting mount becomes worn or develops excessive play, some suspension movement can occur at the mounting point instead of being properly controlled by the damper.
- This unwanted movement may produce knocking or rattling noises and can reduce the precision of the front suspension. On a performance vehicle, deterioration within a suspension mounting point can affect steering response and the consistency of the chassis during cornering and braking.
- The mount also helps isolate vibration between the suspension and vehicle structure. As the isolation material deteriorates, additional road noise, vibration and harshness may be transmitted into the cabin.
- Severe deterioration can also place additional stress on the shock absorber, mounting hardware and surrounding chassis attachment points.
- Replacing a worn or damaged component with this OE Match Front Shock Absorber Supporting Mount helps restore secure damper location, reduce unwanted suspension movement and maintain predictable front-end behaviour.
