McLaren 650S Front Shock Absorber – 11B1399CP / 11B1400CP

The McLaren 650S Front Shock Absorber 11B1399CP / 11B1400CP is a front suspension component designed for the McLaren 650S, with these two part numbers corresponding to the left- and right-hand front positions. 11B1399CP is identified as the front-left (FL) shock absorber, while 11B1400CP is identified as the front-right (FR) shock absorber.

These shock absorbers are particularly relevant for owners, specialist workshops and McLaren parts buyers sourcing replacement suspension components for the 650S Spider. Current parts listings associate the numbers with 650S Spider vehicles from approximately 2014–2017.

Product Specifications

The left/right identification is supported by current parts listings: 11B1399CP is listed as the front-left shock, while 11B1400CP is listed as the front-right shock.

Front Suspension Replacement

The shock absorber plays an important role in controlling suspension movement and maintaining consistent wheel contact with the road. A worn or damaged front shock absorber can affect the vehicle’s handling, ride control and overall suspension behavior.

For a McLaren 650S, using the correct side-specific component is particularly important. Buyers should compare the part number and physical configuration with the component currently installed on the vehicle before ordering.

Left and Right Part Numbers

This listing covers two corresponding front shock absorber references:

• 11B1399CP – Front Left (FL)
• 11B1400CP – Front Right (FR)

The 11B1399CP component is specifically advertised as a McLaren 650S front-left shock absorber, while 11B1400CP is listed as the front-right unit.

Where a complete pair is being purchased, buyers should confirm that both part numbers are supplied and that the condition and configuration of each unit are suitable for installation.

McLaren 650S Spider Compatibility

Current parts listings associate these shock absorber numbers with the McLaren 650S Spider, including vehicles listed from the 2014–2017 production period. One current listing identifies a 2015 650S Spider with a 3,799 cc engine and 650 hp as the donor application for 11B1400CP.

Because McLaren suspension systems can vary by vehicle specification, the VIN and existing OE number should be checked before purchase rather than relying solely on model and year.

Replacement, Restoration and Suspension Repair

These McLaren 650S front shock absorbers can be relevant for:

• Front suspension repairs
• Replacement of damaged suspension components
• Accident restoration
• McLaren specialist workshop repairs
• Suspension refurbishment
• Replacement of worn shock absorbers
• 650S Spider restoration projects
• Maintaining original suspension configuration

The exact condition of the supplied unit should always be confirmed before installation.

Used Shock Absorber Considerations

Used suspension components can show normal signs of previous use. Buyers should inspect the actual photographs and confirm that there is no visible damage, fluid leakage, corrosion, bent mounting hardware or other condition issue.

One current listing for 11B1400CP describes the component as a used, checked original/OEM part, while another listing offers 11B1399CP as a used front-left shock absorber.

If the shock absorber has been stored for an extended period, professional inspection before installation is recommended.

Professional Installation

Shock absorbers are safety-related suspension components and should be installed by a qualified technician familiar with McLaren vehicles.

After installation, the suspension should be checked for correct mounting, torque, ride height and alignment as applicable. The manufacturer’s service procedures and specifications should be followed.

Why Choose the McLaren 650S 11B1399CP / 11B1400CP?
