Control Arms Front
Fits:
Porsche 911 / 930 / 912 / 914 1965-89
Bring back that iconic Porsche handling with our new front lower control arm bushings. Designed to reduce drag, improve handling of your street or track driven 911, and built with longevity and durability in mind. Taking the rubber bushings out of the equation will retain optimal suspension geometry throughout the full range of motion while reducing compliance for a more direct feel.
• Bushing housings CNC machined from 6061-T6 Aluminum
• Close tolerance design for added rigidity
• Durable anodized finish resists corrosion
• Low friction Delrin bushing inserts
• Stainless steel bushing race & hardware
• Bushing race installation tool included
• Direct replacement of the OEM bushings
• Outlasts factory components
• Engraved Rennline logo

Our GT3 front suspension delivers superior grip and ride quality.
We've adapted our 997 GT3 control arms to fit early '65-'89 911 and '70-'76 914. The system includes a complete subframe and replaces the stock crossmember, control arms, mounts, bushings and ball joints. Built from aircraft grade aluminum, the system is about half the weight of the replaced components.
Ease of adjustment
Easily adjust camber, caster and even track width.
Left and right threaded double adjusters are provisioned on the control and caster arms to provide for easy length adjustment without disconnecting the member.
Low friction, spherical action
Low friction allows the suspension to follow road/track irregularities smoothly, keeping tire contact patches stable. Ride and performance are greatly improved.
Pivot points are precision spherical heim joints, oversized for strength and durability. Spherical heim joints move freely with very low friction, yet precisely position suspension members to maintain alignment settings with zero deflection under load. Lack of deflection makes the car predictable and easier to drive fast, reducing need for constant corrections by the driver.
Spherical action of the heim joints self aligns continuously, ensuring smooth non-binding action even when the chassis is flexing under load.
Weathersealed
Heim and ball joints are completely sealed to keep out contaminants and water. The result is a extended life and a robust system suitable for street or track use.
Improved Geometry and subframe
Control arms are longer than stock to provide a improved camber curve and grip when cornering. Front pickup point is similarly moved inboard to maintain a stable caster curve.
Our GT3 subframe includes longitudinal members that connect the front mounts back to the crossmember. This provides a proper load path to transfer the considerable braking forces from the front mounts back to the crossmember. This mimics the braking load path of the factory 935 arms and product control arms.
Braking loads are thus fed into the chassis at the crossmember, as intended by the factory.
Fit and finish
Attention to detail stands out. From the quality of the machine work to the hard anodize finish that is both attractive and scratch resistant. Stressed threads are heli-coiled for strength. Heim joints are replaceable and sealed for durability.
The system readily bolts onto your existing chassis, no drilling or welding required – installation is completely reversible.
You can buy spare control arms if they need replacing. Part number 2180016-SA

Upgrade Your Porsche Suspension with Adjustable Control Arms: Technical Specifications and Benefits
Technical specifications of Adjustable Control Arms:
- Adjustable control arms are suspension components that allow for precise adjustment of the vehicle's camber, caster, and toe settings.
- They are typically made from high-strength steel or lightweight alloys.
- Adjustable control arms feature threaded or eccentric mounts that enable fine-tuning of the suspension geometry.
- They come in various lengths and designs to fit different Porsche models and suspension setups.
- Adjustable control arms are available as upgrade options or standard replacements for Porsche vehicles.
Benefits of upgrading or replacing Adjustable Control Arms for your Porsche:
Improved alignment settings: Adjustable control arms allow for precise adjustment of camber, caster, and toe angles, optimizing the alignment settings for better handling, tire wear, and performance.
Enhanced cornering performance: By fine-tuning the suspension geometry, adjustable control arms can help reduce understeer or oversteer tendencies, improving the vehicle's cornering capabilities and overall stability.
Better tire contact and grip: Proper alignment settings achieved through adjustable control arms ensure optimal tire contact with the road surface, resulting in improved traction, grip, and braking performance.
Extended tire life: By maintaining proper alignment, adjustable control arms can help prevent premature tire wear, saving you money on frequent tire replacements.
Customization and flexibility: Adjustable control arms offer the ability to adjust suspension settings to suit specific driving preferences, track conditions, or modifications made to the vehicle.
