My '77 has 56k on her, I believe the driver's side Konis we took out was the original one from the factory (see picture 3). Picture Picture 2 shows the view looking straight down into the empty strut housing. At the very bottom there's a screw. Don't know what it's there for. Can anyone tell me? Can I remove it and will removing it give me the extra space needed? I've searched and searched and could not find anything similar to this. In Wayne's 101 Projects, it says to drop the strut in. Oy! Picture 1 is the strut housing. Picture 3 shows the old strut insides. Specifically what's happening is when we dropped the strut insert into the housing, the insert sticks up about 3/4" above the top of the housing. this means I can't contain the insert in the housing, the top will not screw on.
