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

I have 911 struts on my 911 and my 914, and have other 911 struts

The Bilstien struts and Koni struts are sufficiently different that you cant interchange the inserts

Boge and Koni swap

Truechoice

can do some voodoo and get some very modern high performance inserts into the 911 strut
