    Front Struts 1971 911S

    Hi Guys,

    I am looking to get new front struts for my 1971 S as the ones I have are shot, pitted, etc....
    The Parts book says 91134104300 and 91134194400. I understand I have Kong's.

    I can find new struts for Boge 91134104304 - but not the Koni....

    Any suggestions?

    I should have been more specific. I am not looking for the inserts, but the Strut tower and spindle itself

    I don't believe these are for a 1971. Anyone know if these are the same?

    Those will work in your 71S. You will need to change your ball joints and wheel bearings to later units, though.

    Regards

    Thanks Jim. So if I used these I would use ball joints and bearings for a 1972 S model on?
