After powder coating my what appear to be original 72 Bavaria strut housings I reassembled them with what I think are the original springs and these Bilstein inserts which were already installed at some point. Unfortunately, I didn't think to measure the locking ring dimensions or the struts themselves. They seemed to be in decent shape despite their age ( they say 76 on them) so I reinstalled them but now I am wondering if I do need to replace them what the better options would be? I see some Koni adjustables can still be found on ebay although they say they are for E12 and also some Boge as well. Then of course there are the more readily available Bilstein HD. I plan on 14" tires and stock springs or maybe cut one coil. Any and all info on what I have would be appreciated.
