Product Information

Full details

The Powerflex PFR57-415 Engine Gearbox Mount Bush is designed for owners of classic Porsche 911 models (1965-1989) who are looking to restore or enhance their vehicle's handling and drivetrain stability. By replacing standard, ageing rubber mounts, these high-performance polyurethane bushes provide a sharper driving feel and improved safety, though users should note that stiffer materials may introduce a slight increase in vibration compared to factory-spec rubber.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Will these bushes make my 911 uncomfortable?

While the material is firmer than original rubber, most drivers find the increase in tactile feedback far outweighs any minor increase in vibration.

Do I need a press to install these?

No, these are designed to be installed without specialized heavy-duty press tools.

How many bushes are in the box?

The PFR57-415 kit contains 2 bushes.

Can I use these on a 1990 Porsche 911?

No, this part is specifically engineered for the 1965-1989 model years.

Do they require maintenance?

Beyond a basic inspection during regular oil changes to check for mounting security, they are largely maintenance-free.

Troubleshooting

Increased vibration after installation

Ensure that the mounting bolts are torqued to the specific factory settings for your Porsche 911 model; overtightening can amplify vibration.

Difficulty inserting new bushes

Thoroughly clean the mounting housing of all remnants of the old rubber and apply sufficient silicone grease to the outer surface of the polyurethane bush.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly improves drivetrain feedback
  • High resistance to oil and road grime compared to rubber
  • Long-lasting material prevents future sagging
  • Easy installation process
  • Helps restore original factory-new handling characteristics

Cons

  • May transmit more cabin noise or vibration than soft rubber
  • Requires proper removal of old, seized rubber components
  • Limited to specific 1965-1989 Porsche 911 chassis applications

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This kit includes 2 pieces for the gearbox mount area. Installation is straightforward as it replaces standard rubber bushes directly; however, ensure you fully clean the metal housing of any remaining rubber residue before inserting the Powerflex units. Use a high-quality silicone grease (usually provided by Powerflex) to coat the bushings to prevent squeaking. Regularly inspect the bushes during your annual service to ensure they remain free of debris. This product is compatible exclusively with Porsche 911 models manufactured between 1965 and 1989.
