So just after praising the customer service of getting this boot to my house in 2 days of placing the order
Update: I have an early boot setup. Must have been before the switch in 73. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/farm2.staticflickr.com-18763-1528940079.1.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/farm2.staticflickr.com-18763-1528940080.2.jpg) |

Early is larger than the late on those. I found that out on my car too. My 72 also had a spring retainer that the superseded part did not have. I believe that this is one of the parts that Porsche was trying to save money on when the emissions and safety expenditures were cutting into their bottom line.
