Wishbones & bushes

OEMatch Wishbones & Bushes — Control, Stability, Comfort

Wishbones and bushes are core suspension items that control wheel location, movement and alignment on Porsche models. OEMatch supplies direct-fit wishbones and alternative bushes selected for servicing, restoration and setup work, helping maintain intended steering behaviour, tyre contact and ride comfort across model generations.

• Standard replacement wishbones and control arms
• Rubber and polyurethane bush options
• Corrosion-resistant and strengthened control arm variants

Understanding OEMatch Wishbones & Bushes

OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts are made by the same company that produced your Porsche’s original wishbones & bushes.
OE (Original Equipment) refers to parts matching original specifications for the wishbones & bushes and may be supplied by alternative manufacturers. Aftermarket parts offer alternative options, sometimes with enhanced features or better value. OEMatch supplies non-OEM wishbones & bushes engineered as direct-fit alternatives to OEM parts, made to original-spec dimensions and tolerances for Porsche models.

Wishbones (control arms) locate the wheel hub and transmit suspension loads while bushes isolate vibration and allow controlled articulation. Correctly functioning bushes control camber, caster and toe under load and preserve intended steering response. OEMatch maintains a wide catalogue of Porsche items, documenting over 4,000 part numbers and more than 8,700 OE cross-references, and continues to develop new parts to support servicing and restoration.

Benefits Include

• Restores correct suspension geometry and wheel alignment
• Reduces vibration and unwanted noise transmitted to the chassis
• Improves steering precision and tyre wear consistency

Why Wishbones & Bushes Wear and Fail

• Bush rubber cracking, splitting or hardening due to age and environmental exposure
• Corrosion, bending or fatigue in wishbone arms and mounting points
• Impact damage from potholes or kerbs causing deformation or misalignment

The Importance of Replacing with OEMatch Wishbones & Bushes

Replacing worn wishbones and bushes restores predictable handling and preserves tyre contact patches on Porsche vehicles. Correct components protect other suspension items from accelerated wear, help maintain alignment settings used for safe steering response and support the intended balance between comfort and control.

Advantages

• Direct-fit alternatives made to original-spec dimensions and tolerances for straightforward replacement
• Choice of standard rubber or polyurethane bush compounds to suit comfort or performance preferences
• Parts manufactured from corrosion-resistant materials to reduce long-term maintenance
