Hi all,
i need a set of strut inserts that fit both a 914 front strut and a 911 front strut. im thinking Bilsteins or konis. does such a strut insert exist? someone told me to call jason at paragon products. Is there a 914 club discount (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) ???? also- the reason why i ask is so i can just carry over the strut inserts over from the /4 struts to the 911 suspension i am going to install in the winter- why buy parts twice right? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mueba.gif)

would PET hold the key to my mystery? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

This is from Paragon Products "Dr. Koni Tech Session" webpage

-----------------------------------------------

Question: I bought a set of 911 struts to go on my 914, what insert should I use?

Answer: Dimensionally, the 911 and the 914 insert are the same. The difference is in the valving. Many shock companies use the insert for both the 911 and 914 (read lower cost to them) but Koni has designed different valving for each application. So if you're installing 911 struts on your 914, you'll still want to use the 914 Koni insert. If you're installing the 914 insert into a 911 Carrera strut, please ask us to include a special centering washer that these later struts utilized.
