| Weltmeister Camber Plates |
Get a dramatic increase in steering and suspension feedback, quicker turn in and precise cornering. Weltmeister's CamberPlates replace soft top strut rubber bushings with precision spherical bearings. Moreover, the lightweight aluminum CamberPlates are machined with two sets of mounting holes, providing you with a wide range of camber possibilities. You can get up to 1 to 1 1/2 degrees more negative camber, so you can take full advantage of the latest super-sticky race and street tires. Bolt-in installation requires no body modifications. Fits all 911, 911 Turbo, 912 1969-89; and all 914. Fits all Bilstein and Koni shocks except 911 Race Konis 1149. Installation requires front suspension realignment. 911 Owners: Step up to improved tire grip and quicker cornering with our optional strut cross-brace kit. (CamberPlates do not work with the standard Weltmeister Cambermeister strut brace [CM-1000]). The cross-brace kit is easy to bolt in and can be added later in 30 minutes or less. This combination provides ultimate strut tower strength for improved turn in and maximum tire grip. Manufacturer: Weltmeister |

Suspension Bushings  |
Perhaps the best thing that you can do to help an aging suspension is to replace old, brittle bushings with new high-tech, space-age, low-fat, super-duper ones. The newer bushings are made from better materials and will not wear out as easily as 25+ year old rubber ones. The original 911 rear suspension bushings are vulcanized rubber and wrap around the rear spring plate. The replacement bushings are a good alternate, but are not a direct replacement for the original factory setup. The replacement bushings rotate with the rear spring plate, and the originals actually twisted around the torsion bar. What's the difference? Sometimes the newer bushings can squeak when the car bounces. Performance-wise, they are very similar. Pelican doesn't recommend replacing your rear bushings unless they show signs of cracking and fatigue. If you want stock suspension bushings, then you need to purchase an entire rear spring arm (see below). In a similar manner, the front A-arm bushings are sold only with new A-arms, and are not available separately. You must purchase a new A-arm in order to get the original bushings. (see below) Manufacturer: Weltmeister (PolyGraphite Bushings)NOTE: Weltmeister Rear Trailing Arm bushings have the trailing arm bushing washers impregnated into the bushing. You do not need to use the OEM washer when using this type of bushing. |
