Front shock dia

Not that I know any of them, but which dia are you in need of??

The cartridge insert OD, or ID of strut assembly, or OD of strut assembly.

I have a rear Bilstein on my bench, I could measure the OD if you like?

Front strut. The thickness/diameter of the shock / inside of the strut. Will a 51mm shock fit inside the front strut. :)
 
A 51 mm diameter strut (OD of shock casing) would not fit. I took some measurement of my front strut and old collar nut - easy since they are off the car.

Outside of strut housing is 53.3 mm dia.
Collar nut without threads is 48 mm (so the inside of the strut tube should be a bit wider).
Collar nut with threads is 49.6 mm dia.

I hope that helps.
 
Super :) thanks for the measurements! Doing air suspension on my e3. Rest is finished. Had to use the car a couple of days so not started on the front. Got a 50mm strut with airbag on. Didnt know If that woid fit inside the stock strut.
