I don't have one stripped down to check but if it's any help, I'd guess they are about 3-5mm longer than a TA23 one, if you have one of those to check from. I'm guessing this because I put new Monroe inserts in my RA28 about 10years and can remember thinking they were not exactly right. They were too short but I packed them out with 2 or 3 coins or penny washers, I think.
Do you have the outer strut casing and cap to take a measurement from?

thanks for your help. my problem was i bought a pair of ebay and one was an inch shorter than the other one! the seller said he would send me another to make a pair if i let him know which was the right size. Anyway as neither of us could find out, he has refunded my money  the ones on the car are ok, i was just going to take the opportunity to change them at the same time as fitting lowering springs. |
