Shock Absorber Parts REAR

Rear Shock Absorber Top Mount & Overhaul Kit.
Ensure your Porsche 987.2 Boxster rear suspension remains at its best with this comprehensive overhaul kit designed for the rear shock absorber top mount region. This kit restores the mount that secures your damper to the chassis, eliminating movement, noise and restoring handling precision.

Fits:

• Porsche Boxster 987 MKII 2.9L 2009-2012 (For Cars With PASM)
• Porsche Boxster S 987 MKII 3.4L 2009-2012 (For Cars With PASM)

Diagram Ref No 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9

What This Product Does:

• The rear shock absorber top mount (sometimes called the strut mount) attaches the top of the rear damper/strut to the vehicle’s body or suspension tower. It carries the load from the spring/damper, secures the strut in correct vertical position and isolates road noise/vibration.
  
• Over time the mount rubber can degrade (crack, compress, wear), the bearing (if present) can develop play, the studs or hardware may corrode — leading to unwanted movement, noise, poor rear suspension behaviour or handling issues.
• The overhaul kit replaces the mount and all relevant hardware/fasteners so that the damper top-interface is renewed and restored, ensuring correct alignment, proper isolation and solid connection.
  
  

Sign Of Needing Replacement:

• A tired mount or bearing often causes knocking or creaking from the rear suspension—replacing the mount/kit cures these NVH (noise, vibration, harshness) symptoms.
• If the mount is compromised, it can increase stress on the shock absorber rod, spring seat, or mount tower. Renewing the mount protects those components.

Why Replacement Matters:

• Restores rear suspension performance & precision: The top mount is key to how the rear suspension reacts under load. When worn, the mount may flex or move under cornering/braking, reducing tyre contact, upsetting alignment and degrading handling.
• Cost‐efficient approach: If you're already undertaking rear suspension work (shock/strut replacement or spring change), replacing the mount and hardware at the same time avoids repeat labour and future issues.
