what year 911 strut insert will fit into a 914 strut? almost ready to 5 lug conversion.

worded better: what strut insert fits both the 914 strut and ? year 911 suspension?

If you go Boge 911 struts, you can get Koni or Bilstein inserts for them. I have Koni reds in 911 boge struts. Works great.

One thing to note: I believe the inserts for the 911 have different valving, I suspect to make up for the heavier 911.

Also, if the strut you get has a different pincher bolt, you'll need the matching ball joint - a nice "gotcha" on a Saturday afternoon. Then you have to get that joint nut off. If it's never been off, it's a chore...
