72' 911 shocks - OEM manufacturer
Is there an easy way to tell which manufacturer's shocks are on my 72' 911T. The current rear set is red-orange in color...Koni? The fronts are black. I do need new ones and from what I've read, they could be one of 3 manufacturers. I can't find any remaining decals/labels.
Thanks... Jack McAllister |

Black ones may be Boge.

The black struts would indicate that it either came with Sachs or boge. However, since the rears are Koni, it may now have Koni inserts inside the Boge strut housings. Are there little flat things that look like the tip of a screwdriver sticking out of the top of the threaded shaft? (In the front trunk on top of the strut). If so it has Koni inserts.

OK now it makes sense Jack. I got a little confused and answered the 930 question on this post. I should switch to decaf.
