I stumbled across some gray Boge shocks at a Porsche shop and am trying to determine if they might be original rears for a 914-6. Can't find reference to the part number (902-333-051-00).

If they are correct, has anyone had luck in having shocks rebuilt?

No clip grooves for the spring seat.

My original 75 Boge 4 cylinder rear struts have the spring seat swagged into a depression in the strut tube.

I don't think those are 914 struts/shocks.

I looked for someone to rebuild Boge, for longer than I intended to and I could not find a rebuilder for Boge. There may be a shop out there but I could not find one. Bils, Fox, King and some others but not Boge

The 902 part # is indicative of a 912; 1965 to 1969
