I have a set of struts sold to me as 911T struts. But mrHyde pointed out to me that they are a 914/6 number.
So were Boge part # 914 341 091 struts used on 911T's?

I have everything for this conversion, but I'm going to have to buy new balljoints

Thanks Eric,
Now I have another question Boge struts and I have Bilstein shocks.

I can't see the part number on the '74 struts on my teen, IIRC it had Boge shocks originally, but it has been 10 years since I put the old stock bilstein's in.

They are the Bilstein's with the huge chrome shafts and though they had a different cap they fit in no problem.

I have Bilstein's in Boge struts. I just bought the ones deisgned to fit those struts. I could be wrong but . . . the Bilsteins designed for the Boge strut fit in them. The ones not designed specifically for Boge won't fit.
