Product Description

The Bilstein 22-046123 B6 Performance front strut is designed to deliver enhanced handling, stability, and road control while retaining everyday driving comfort. This performance strut features a monotube gas-pressure design with application-specific valve tuning to provide responsive damping and improved traction without requiring spring changes. Its direct-fit design works with the factory springs and suspension components, making it a strong upgrade over worn stock units.

This front strut fits Porsche 911 (996) models from 1999 through 2005, including Carrera, Carrera S, and 40th Anniversary variants where standard suspension is equipped. It installs using the factory upper stem and lower base cup mount and is sold individually; replacing both front struts together is recommended for balanced handling and consistent ride quality. Always verify vehicle specifics before ordering to ensure proper compatibility.
