identify Bilstein strut cartridge
My 82 911SC has a Carrera BOGE on the drivers side (PO accident) and the OE Bilstein on the passenger side. I am going to buy a Bilstein strut housing for the drivers side and new strut cartridges for both.
I pulled the old cartridge from the passenger side thinking it would have a part number that would identify it as HD or Sport or etc... I cannot find any identifying information. Is there anyway to tell what strut cartridge was in it originally??? |

What does the car have on the rear for shocks?
There should be a number and possibly a date stamped on the strut, which may be an indication to originality.

Rear shocks are aftermarket Koni's
Front Bilstein housing has 911 341 042 32 on it. I assumed that was for the OE housing and the cartridge would have its own part number from Porsche. |

B6 inserts would be normal.
