			 Hi,  
			I am looking to buy some used 3" spacing 911 struts but I want the late wedge-pin style ball joint bolts. The struts I am looking to buy are: Boge 1-0211-32-173-0 Porsche part # 911-341-080-02 I cannot find that Porsche part number. I am concerned that they are the early style and the PET only shows the later part number. The seller sent me these picts of the bottom of the struts. Can anyone identify early or late from the picts? -Andrew Attached thumbnail(s)  |

			 The picture you show is a 1969 or later strut, the early struts look totally different and will not attach to a post 1969 a-arm (see below)
