Need help. My 75 2.0 has worn strut inserts, PO replaced front struts with what I believed were 1977 911S Koni struts part #911 341 079 16 stamped on it. Bought inserts Koni 86-1942. Problem is they bottom out before going in far enough to secure them with the round nut.
Could I have 72-74 911S struts? Did they have the same part number? And are those inserts (86-1638) just a little shorter to seat further down. The 1942s seem to be just about 12mm too long, body of the 1942 is 374mm long. Tried getting info from a few places including Koni but no luck. Thanks |
