Bilstein B8 Performance Plus Front Left Strut Assembly 35-195276 | Porsche 993 1994-1998 M030 / M033 Sport Suspension Only Sold Each
The Bilstein B8 Performance Plus front left strut assembly, part number 35-195276, is the driver's-side front strut for a 993 fitted with the factory sports suspension. A monotube upside-down gas-pressure strut with a shortened body, valved to control a sport-lowered chassis properly.
For M030 / M033 sports suspension only. Bilstein lists this part specifically for 993s carrying the factory sport chassis option. If your 993 has the standard chassis, this is the wrong strut — buy the B6 Performance front left (35-046929) instead. On standard springs the shortened B8 body runs out of travel, rides harshly and wears out early.
Sold individually. Left side only — order part number 35-195283 for the right side.
Key Benefits:
- Shortened monotube upside-down body matched to the sport chassis ride height
- Side-specific construction for correct mounting and clearance
- Firmer valving developed for the M030 / M033 spring rates
- Greater side-load capacity than a conventional damper
- Controls the reduced travel a sport-lowered car actually has
- Limited Lifetime Warranty against manufacturer defects
Compatible Vehicles:
- Porsche 993 1994-1998 with M030 / M033 sports suspension
Note: Front left position. Requires the factory sports suspension option (marked M030 or M033). Check your car's option sticker before ordering — fitting this to a standard-chassis 993 will ride badly.
Installation Instructions:
