Oh so no strut cutting required to compensate for the shorter insert?
Pics and measurement would be great mate!

Here are a couple of pics I had.

The meaurements from the base of the strut tube to the end of the strut is 340mm.

Hope that helps.

Cheers,

Cool,

Obviously, make sure you get the inserts first before you cut your struts.

Good luck.

Cheers

**** ahh struts are getting welded tomorrow! :/ Think you could give me exact measurements without being too much of a hassle?

I measured 340mm give or take a few mm.

Maybe make them a little longer and worst case you can use a couple of washers in the bottom or make up a spacer to move them up a bit if needed.

Good luck.

That sounds about right.

You don't want to wait till you get the shocks just to be sure?

I find that no matter how much I cut off something it always ends up being too short.
