Here is a question for you guys with 911 fronts on your 14's.
Can any strut be used in the 911 strut housings? Or are you stuck with the type strut it came with? For example...Can a Bilstein replacement strut be used where a Boge factory strut was? Is there a centering ring or adapter needed? Thanks Chris |

Well, I don"t have 911 struts on my 914 but I have them on my 911 (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif).
I have always understood the "strut" to be the hollow outer part that has the steering arm on it and the "insert" to be the innards that provide the damping. Bilstein makes inserts for their struts and Boges (and maybe Konis also) but they are different items. Hope this helps. |
