Front Struts Question

[Hawkeye's-911T]

I posted this in the 911 Tech Forum yesterday & so far I've drawn zero responses:

I have a 1970T with pinch-bolt struts (Boge) which I plan on swapping with some Boges (with 3" caliper bolt spacing) if they check out after I have them magnafluxed. These replacement struts were picked up at a swap meet without the male threaded gland nut. I want to keep the car as close to stock as possible so I opted for these Boge wedge-pins as a safety upgrade as per Grady et al. I pulled an existing strut insert from the car to check things out before purchasing new inserts for the intended replacement struts.


This is the insert I removed from the existing Boge pinch-bolt strut.


This is the male threaded gland nut that appears to be an integral part of the insert tube. Incidentally those gouge marks on the gland nut OD were from a previous install.


This photo is a top view showing the general arrangement of the bushing/seal assembly & 2 holes I presume are for a dedicated installation tool. The tube is stamped (barely visible) 82R 1647 612 with no other identification marks. I've done a pile of searching & drawn nothing but blanks.
My question is what kind of inserts are these & what to do about the gland nut issue & seal for new inserts? I hope to purchase the new inserts from our host. Any advice members of the board can forward to me will be most appreciated.

I may be breaking the"double-post"rule but could somebody be so kind as to steer me into the right direction

Cheers

Koni inserts

82R 1647 is the same as 86-1647. 82R is an OLD part #

Pelican shows them as unavailable.

Not sure about the gland nut and seal.....
