The MODE mounts are billet aluminum reproductions of the original Porsche Motorsport parts because the original cast housings and bearing intergity was lacking. They have been in production unchanged and supplied since the 90s by Bob Homcombe of Motorsport Design here in Scottsdale, Arizona USA. As a former machinist here and working from the same building, EP-West is here to keep the production orders alive.

These productions were also supplied to other companies to later produced elseware. We are still glad to provide certain damper manufacturers with machine production and mounts.

964 and 993 are virtually identical and interchangeable with the 964 front plates offset further inwards.

Commonly asked is how much adjustment do the mounts offer. This is dynamic progressively based on ride height and other configurations. Seldom is ir necessary to modify the turret mounts for more adjustment. Also common is the ask about sealed bearings. The original feature factory bearing rubber boots were omitted, simply because they are not necessary with the F1 qality bearings used today. Servicing the bearings is extreemly uncommon. When they have been sent in for service, usually we get non Mode parts or old parts that have been used on 6 cars with wrong hardware.

The busings and spring hardware is also variable depending on the damper manufacturers.
