Chassis Reinforcement Kits
For Porsche 911, 912, 930
- Reinforce or repair common problem areas with Elephant Racing weld-on reinforcement kits.
Prevent or repair common failure point
Elephant Racing Swaybar Mount Reinforcement Panels will help prevent or repair the common problem of cracked swaybar mounts resulting from the application of overly stiff, binding, or incorrectly adjusted aftermarket swaybars.
Elephant Racing Swaybar Mount Reinforcement Panels are precision laser-cut from18 gauge steel. They distribute the swaybar loads into the bulkhead and double-layer sheet metal just beyond the original single-layer hole location.
You may also be interested in an upgrade to Elephant Racing’s QuickChange Blade Style Swaybar which mounts to the chassis using spherical bushings that articulate or “float” ensuring no binding. Spherical bushings allow mounts to automatically re-align themselves when the chassis is flexing under load. We believe this binding plays a significant role in the mount’s failure.
Installation requires welding.

Our reinforcement kit strengthens this vulnerable area and properly distributes coilover spring loads.
Rear Shock Tower Reinforcement
Our brackets make it easy to get a professional result, saving you the time and guesswork cutting your own.
This kit requires welding for installation.
- Laser Cut – Fits the profile of the shock tower perfectly.
- Strong – Solidly ties the towers and cross-member into unibody box sections and inner wheel well. Distributes the shock loads properly and reinforces the entire section.
- Holes – Great appearance and convenient routing of hoses and wires.
- Weld from one side – Fully seam weld without removing rear firewall.
- Light Weight – Properly engineered to distribute loads, not ‘over engineered’ with excess material and weight.

Stock 911 rear swaybar mounts have a nasty habit of tearing away from the body. Stiff sway bars and aggressive driving only accelerate the inevitable mount failure.
Replace your mounts with these super strong aftermarket mounts and solve the problem for good. Requires grinding off the factory mounts and welding for installation.
The mounts have two sets of screw holes to fit both the 66mm bolt spacing as equipped on the 1978 to 1989 cars as well as the 56mm bolt spacing as equipped on the 1965 to 1977 cars.
- Compatible with ’65-’77 clamps and ’78-’89 swaybar clamps
- Fully machined surfaces for a precision fit
- Consistent material thickness for easy installation
- Tighter tolerances, more surface area, and stronger than any other rear swaybar mounts available.

Repair or prevent spring plate mounts from cracking
Spring Plate Mount Reinforcement Panels will help prevent or repair the common problem of cracked spring plate cover mounts resulting from worn, deformed, or stuck bushings in the cover.
Elephant Racing Rear Spring Plate Mount Reinforcement Panels are precision laser-cut and formed panels from 18 gauge steel. These panels distribute the torsion bar and spring plate loads into the torsion tube housing and multi-layer sheet metal just beyond the original mounting boss locations.
Excess heat during the welding process will tend to distort the sheet metal moving the mounting studs out of alignment. The included Mounting Stud Alignment Panel will help maintain their original spacing allowing for much easier reassembly.
