Thread: Source for bushings for SWB steering "knuckles"

    Source for bushings for SWB steering "knuckles"

    Working on finishing up my front suspension. I am wondering if anybody has a source for the rubber bushings which go into the "knuckles" which are screwed into the steering rack. I am talking about part 901 347 309 00. The knuckles are available new but they are a later version carrying a 914 part number I believe and are to be used with a smaller diameter bolt. I would like to keep things original. Anybody know if there is a source for the bushings?

    FWIW, I have had the lock plates 901 347 283 00 made. They will be send out for phosphate plating this week. I made some extras should there be a need out there.

    TIA,

    JK

    I'm confused as to exactly what part you're after. 901-347-309-00 is a retainer spring that holds the bellows to the steering rack. Stoddard sells those for $8.13.


    Silentbloc 901-347-295-00 is available from Porsche Monterey for the exorbitant price of $3.44. Pelican Parts wants $4.75.

    My free download of PET doesn't show 901-347-295-00 for SWB 911s. It does show silentbloc 901-347-295-01. Pelican Parts has that for $25.75.

    Neither PET nor the Pelican Parts website have a picture so I wouldn't know if a silentbloc is something that might be called a "knuckle."


    Hint: Google the part number you need.
