Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have bought a refurbed set of PSS9 suspension for my car from a forum member. I'll need to replace the top nut as it is one time use. Anybody know the thread and pitch, so I can have it here ready and waiting?

POST 2Original post

I think it's M12 1.5, but you should be able to look it up - or even send Bilstein a email...Good luck

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

They don't have any info on the pss9 anymore

POST 4Original post

I found the info in another thread - it's the same as the stock struts which is M12 1.5 pitch. (the stock struts are Bilstein as well)... Besides that, the "one time use" thing...Eh, if you're really worried about it throw a little blue loctite on it and mark it with a little paint or colored nail polish so you can tell if it has moved. I generally stick to the rules when it comes to fasteners, but I'm convinced that some of this stuff is just to drive sales (and of course to indemnify Porsche of liability should somebody do something really stupid). I think it get's torqued to around 60 ft lbs, so it's not going anywhere... (it's not like it's a crankshaft carrier or connecting rod bolt...). Good Luck

That's correct for the rear shocks. Front struts are M14 x 1.5.
