Anyone have a strut handy for some measurements?

Hi,

Robokill was so friendly to provide me with a pair of struts for the KE25..I couldn't mount them yet because I thought I needed TE27 knuckles, which went for ridiculous prices..Found out that there are other options too, so time to get back to working on the KE!!!

Lennert told me that the struts he gave had been modified somehow. I would like to find out what was done to them exactly and further modify them untill they suit my needs. If someone has a std. AE86 strut handy, could you please measure the following two things for me:

Total length of strut (top of cartridge to knuckle mount)

Distance from the bottom of the strut to the spring perch

Distance from top of strut to the springperch (to double check)

It would really help me out, thanks in advance!

Those struts only have the spring perches welded back a bit higher (since they came off a rally car) You should be able to see where the perches used to be by sanding the paint off you lazy bum!
Furthermore, whats the point? Thought you wanted coilovers anyway..

I din't know that, irritating little twirp ;-) (though you are the bigger one these days). Thought I might use some stock ae86 springs untill my current state of bancrupcy comes to an end..would be nice to not end up with a monster truck..
