I'm up to something and I need the dimensions on an S13 front strut. I'm too lazy to rip one out of the 180 so I was hoping somebody had one tossed in a corner that they would be willing to spec out for me. :couch

I need the following measurements in millimeters please.

The spread on the hub mounting tabs. I need 27mm or larger.
The spread on the two bolt holes in the tabs. I need about 28mm.
The bottom of the spring seat to the bottom end of the strut tube. I need about 90mm.
The spread from each of the three upper mount bolts to its closest neighbor. I need about 99mm.

Please to helping. :help:

The spread on the hub mounting tabs 32-33mm.

The spread on the two bolt holes in the tabs, like the size of the holes to the knuckle? looks like 12mm in dia. and the holes are 48mm apart

The bottom of the spring seat to the bottom end of the strut tube, I won't give that being its not a stock piece and that's probably different.

The spread from each of the three upper mount bolts to its closest neighbor is more like 97mm maybe 98mm
