Looking for Bilstein struts for my 72 911. Either with or without raised spindles. Will pay shipping to Oregon.

Still looking. Stock Bilsteins would be better as I only have room for about 17mm raised spindles. This is for a 72 Porsche 911.

I'm still looking. Are your Bilsteins stock for a 69? I'm still looking for a pair that I can raise 17mm for my 15" wheels on a 72 911. I've had to return the last two pairs I purchased because they where't true or the spindle was pitted.

I might be interested, depending on the price and if you'd let me return them if my shop says they aren't serviceable.

to whom this may interest..I will be taking the car to the shop supposedly by the end of this week as soon as my mechanic frees up a space. I don't see any issues with my struts, chassis is perfectly straight and the car's condition is as good as it gets. I will put a price on it when its off the car so it reflects the condition as it stands.

struts

.... again - to whom it may interest, please be careful with caliper bolt spacing on struts from a 1969 car. My '69's have 3" spacing and I think they went to 3.5" in 1970. I would hate to see the OP having to send back yet another set of struts because of this issue......

Brake

May I make a suggestion. Use the 3.5 inch struts and buy 84 thru 89 Carrera brakes front and rear. Lots more brakes for little more money.

Oops didn't realize the early Bilsteins had 3" spacing. If that's the case I'd have to bow out. I'm looking for the later struts with the 3.5" spacing.
