He's on the right path

I just did this upgrade on my '77 and the Boge struts had an integrated shock. It turned out to be easier than I suspected.
First Boge and Sachs (from everything I could see) are the same company. The write ups and tech articles provide good direction. The inserts supplied by our host are a perfect fit.
You will find an issue once you get the large nut off the strut. I had to buy some very large channel locks which did the trick.
Once off you will find a lot of oil inside so have paper towels handy. The whole process is straightforward and once done, the ride improvement was outstanding.

Good luck.
