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) |

Mid 911 struts are split at the base and use a pinch bolt. Late 911 are solid base and use v shaped wedgepin. Since there is no split at the base, the struts are late style and use the same ball joint as the 914.
