Today we learn how to install & replace Porsche 911 912 rear spring plate bushings, plus how to remove torsion bars and set the ride height adjustment with spring plate as we suspension revive a classic air-cooled Porsche 911 912.
This video covers how to change the ride height of your Porsche 911 and how to change porsche 911 rear suspension bushings as well.
Replacing the 4 rubber bushings on the spring plate in the rear suspension on a Porsche 911 or 912 isn't a hard job at all to do for the home DIY Porsche owner. The parts only cost about $60, takes about 3 hours using basic hand tools. The only real special tools you'll need is a $10 angle finder from your local hardware store of from the Amazon link below.
My 1967 Porsche 912 coupe is unique, instead of the original Porsche 616 motor (the same motor found in the Porsche 356 model), I put in a 1976 Porsche 912E VW Type 4 motor. The VW Type 4 motor will mount to the stock Porsche 901 transmission, the only issues I had was the engine tin and motor mount.
Follow along in this video as we restore my classic 1967 Porsche 912 (Porsche 911 with a 4 cylinder motor).

Great video. Some tips for others: Buy new hardware instead of rattle canning everything, then torque to spec. Also, it is not recommended to use grease on the new rubber, they are supposed to "bite" and assist in the cushioning. If they just spin on grease, they are not doing their job. Additionally, you wouldn't want to use a petroleum based grease on rubber, which will soften and advance wear. If you did elect to use grease, a dielectric or food-grade based grease would be preferred as to not soften and compromise the rubber. Thank you for posting Brian.

You can buy all new grade 10.9 hardware from Bel Metric for very little money (like $20.00). The only hardware I reuse is the unique, proprietary stuff, which I sand blast and get replated, which is also not very expensive. Replating everything from the engine and front suspension on my 924S only cost me about $100.00.

Its not that hard of a job, the tough part is getting the springs in the right angel as they were.

No petroleum based grease on the rubber bushings. They will deteriorate rapidly. Only use synthetic grease, non-petroleum based.

Great video Brian. This project has been on my list for a while for my 79' SC. Anything about my model year that you can think of that will be drastically different from your procedure? Without this video I wouldn't even try to tackle this myself! Thanks again!

You might have an additional two bolts on the swing arm if I can recall correctly. Mark on the body/frame the current angel of the swing arm before taking them off, helps gets the alignment back much quicker.

Make sure your torsion bars are set in with the splines in the correct position to set the outer splines in the same angle positions.

Great stuff Brian! Did you have to get your car professionally aligned after replacing the bushings?
@ArrowheadGarage
@ArrowheadGarage 3 года назад
I did an old fashion home alignment first LOL then took it to a shop once I was finished with all the work. Maybe I should do a video on how to do an alignment at home? HUMMMMM

Great Video Brian!! I'm Still Deciding on Doing the Work Myself, Replacing the Rear Torsion Bars, Bushings, and Spring Plates or Having a Shop Perform the Work on My 1975 Porsche 911. I Have a Few Questions. If I Replace the Factory Spring Plates With Adjustable Spring Plates, Is It Just as Crucial to Have the Splines Clocked the Same on the Torsion Bars, or Does the Adjustment In the Spring Plate, ie Sway Away Spring Plates Take Up the Difference? If I Were to Have a Shop Perform the Upgrade to New Torsion Bars, Bushings, and Spring Plates, How Many Hours Is Reasonable to Estimate for This Job? Thanks, Scotty

Not sure the total hours for a shop, but I do know that with the adjustable plates it's way easier to change the settings!

Mike I went with URO brand, but I think the next time I do this, I will use Factory Porsche rubber bushings. Thanks for watching man.
