I’ve got stock 914 struts on my car with 4 lug wheels. My goal is to install 911 struts with their 911 calipers, 3 inch spacing, so I can mount 5 lug Fuchs. I already have the struts, calipers and wheels. I’m missing the hubs and some other hardware. Is any of the hardware transferable from the original stock struts?Attached Image

I can help you with the hubs. Backing shield for 911s have vent holes.
Do you have 911 pinch bolt or wedge pin struts? And are the 911 struts punch bolt or wedge pin?
If not the same you will need to switch ball joint type to match the strut.

It’s a Boge strut part #s are 911-341-079-02 and 911-341-079-02. I guess this is a wedge pin type?
