- Porsche 911 1965-1968 2.0L / 912 SWB (F)
Upgrade the steering precision of your Short Wheelbase (SWB)
Porsche 911 (1964-1968) with this OE Match Turbo Tie Rod Upgrade Kit, specially
engineered using the longer tie rod assemblies required for early SWB cars.
Unlike the more commonly available 1969-1989 Turbo Tie Rod Kits, this version
has been developed specifically for the unique steering geometry of the 1964-1968
Short Wheelbase Porsche 911, ensuring correct fitment without compromising
suspension geometry or steering travel.
Why Are These Tie Rods Different?
Many Turbo Tie Rod Upgrade Kits available today are designed for 1969-1989 Porsche 911 models.
However, 1964-1968 Short Wheelbase cars require a longer tie rod assembly because of their different steering rack position, front suspension geometry and shorter wheelbase chassis.
Installing the later tie rods on an SWB car can lead to incorrect adjustment range and compromised steering geometry.
What Is the Turbo Tie Rod Upgrade?
The Turbo Tie Rod Upgrade is derived from the steering system developed for the Porsche 930 Turbo. Instead of using the original rubber-damped tie rod joint, the Turbo design features a precision ball-and-socket joint that creates a far more rigid and accurate steering connection.
By eliminating flex within the steering linkage, steering inputs are transmitted more efficiently from the steering wheel to the front wheels.
Compared to the original system, the Turbo tie rod design
offers:
- More direct steering feel.
- Sharper steering response.
- Greater steering accuracy.
- Improved steering feedback.
- Reduced steering play.
- Better cornering precision.
- Increased durability.
- Longer service life.
It has become one of the most popular steering upgrades for classic Porsche 911 models because it enhances steering performance while retaining excellent everyday usability.
Why Upgrade Your Original Tie Rods?
Although the original steering components were well engineered, the rubber-damped joints naturally deteriorate with age.
Even if obvious wear is not present, ageing rubber can reduce steering precision and create a vague feeling through the steering wheel.
Upgrading to Turbo specification tie rods offers several
advantages:
- Sharper turn-in.
- Faster steering response.
- More precise steering inputs.
- Improved road feel.
- Better communication between the tyres and steering wheel.
- Increased front-end stability.
- Reduced compliance under heavy cornering.
- Improved confidence during spirited driving.
The improvement is immediately noticeable, particularly on winding roads where accurate steering inputs are essential.
When Should You Replace the Tie Rods?
Tie rods should be inspected regularly and replaced if any
of the following symptoms are present:
- Excessive steering play.
- Loose steering feel.
- Knocking noises from the steering.
- Uneven tyre wear.
- Wandering or instability.
- Poor steering response.
- Split or damaged protective boots.
- Suspension restoration or steering rack replacement.
Many owners choose to install the Turbo Tie Rod Upgrade while replacing a steering rack or rebuilding the front suspension, allowing the entire steering system to be refreshed at the same time.
What Does the Turbo Tie Rod Kit Do?
The kit replaces the steering linkage between the steering rack and front hubs.
Its primary functions include:
- Transmitting steering inputs more accurately.
- Reducing movement within the steering linkage.
- Improving steering precision.
- Enhancing front-end response.
- Increasing steering feedback.
- Supporting accurate suspension geometry.
The result is a tighter, more confidence-inspiring steering system that better reflects the dynamic capabilities of the classic Porsche 911.
Benefits
- Sharper steering response.
- More direct steering feel.
- Improved steering precision.
- Better road feedback.
- Reduced steering compliance.
- Enhanced handling confidence.
- Longer service life.
- Straightforward installation.
Following installation, a professional four-wheel alignment is strongly recommended to ensure optimum steering geometry, tyre wear and handling performance.
