I'm changing the rear shocks and I have some troubles with a part of them.

As shown in the pic, the part numb 34 in my case is totally dead!

I went to my local porsche dealer and that piece is not more availlable.

As you can see my gum piece is so destroyed that i can't figure out his shape.

Do you have a pic of that so I can maybe build it up by myself?

Do you think that the 911 shocks has the same element?

Had to jump in here. I'm waiting for a call back from Bilstien as my set of fronts and rears just arrived without any. They tell me the front inserts have them built-in and they are researching the rears and will let me know. I've yet to find any for less than $15.00 each. Good luck.

Update:

Bilstien and some other manufactures DO incorporate an internal bump stop in their strut inserts, but NOT their shocks. Also the Koni style offered by Poragon are applicable to struts only, the hole is too large for the shocks.
