Can anyone identify the year of this strut? Is it 74-84 or 85-89??? My car is a 77 but the struts may have been changed.

Pelican gives

911-341-041-04-OEM Boge Strut Assembly, 911 (1986-89), Left Brand: Genuine Porsche

911-341-042-04-OEM Boge Strut Assembly, 911 (1986-89), Right Brand: Genuine Porsche

The earlier (74-77) Boge struts have a part # of 911-341-043 & 911-351-044.

Bilstein struts have a part # of 911-341-041-33 and 911-341-042-33, according to both Pelican and PET.

911-341-041-03 & 911-341-042-03 are Boge struts for an '85 MY only, says PET.

And 911-341-041-10 & 911-341-042-10 would be Koni's for a '77 MY with S calipers.

So it looks like it all hinges on the last 2 digits of the strut number - the one you have as "00"...

Sorry, this probably doesn't help much.

The Boge part number is actually a Sachs part number format, but I can't find any exact matches on the web catalog - it doesn't appear to be the 86-89 part:
