I got some 911 struts to do a 5 lug conversion. The struts came with rotors, discs, hubs and M calipers.

When I unskrewed the top of the strut I got a surprise, instead of an insert damper the strut contained a piston and a lot of oil.
The only number I found on the strut was L 655.01

Question: Does anyone know what year the strut was manufactured and what type of insert damper do I need to install? Dont suppose its possible to refill and use existing piston?

Thanks

The one with no number was probably a replacement strut or sold aftermarket.
