WTB; 3.0CSI Front Strut bodies

[CallumNicklin]

Hi all,

Currently upgrading to Biksteins. Have found that the RHS strut is not correct to the car (think it’s an E12?) so require a standard strut body. Cheers,
Cal

Is Double 02 Salvage still in business? I called them yesterday but the number was disconnected. A Google search hints they are closed. Any info?

I believe sfdon posted that O2 was closed and included heart breaking photos of dumpsters filled with parts. I got my struts from Marshall at O2 years ago. Fair, accurate and knowledgeable.

Thanks very much for all the replies - should have stated I’m in the UK! Damn.

Hi Cal,
If you have no luck locally, send me a pm. I can possibly help out via my parts guy.

Hey Keshav,

Thanks again for your generosity!

Could you ask your guy?

Many thanks,
Cal

i have a mixed set of struts on the blue coupe... W&N could deliver the Bilsteins with M48 and M50 gland nut. ( I suppose this is your problem , the gland nut ? )

Camber angle likely the problem, different from e9 to e12/24. Worst case there is an e24 strut on there also, he will have different size bearings left to right.

e9 left, e12 right

 

[CallumNicklin]

Thanks again for this.

Anyone with knowledge of an E9 strut and postage to UK...fingers crossed!

And e12 strut has brake hose mounting bracket on opposite side, rear I think instead of front.
