          What's the difference between early model strut housings and late model ones?

          I have late model 325i strut housings if you're interested

                  He's building coilovers and needs the late model (bigger) ones.

                                      maybe he has new struts for the smaller ones he wants to keep?

                                                  If you think early housings are 45mm and late are 51mm...you are mistaken. There's more to it. Why? because an 84 325e will have the 51mm tubes while a 318i and some 86-87 Base model 325's will have the smaller 45mm housings. Just state what you are looking for. No ABS on the 84-85 318/325 strut housings.
