Hi There,
I wonder if anyone has had this problem. I have a B211 with a bouncy front end. After dismantling the strut assembly I discovered the old refillable strut inserts weren't functioning as intended. The cork seal/washer is still there but the plastic bush.spaced had crumbled and I doubt I could get a repair kit. I bought some Armstrong "heavy duty" sealed inserts which fit snugly but come up quite close to the top and the strut cap cannot be screwed down (see pic). Short of having the screw cap re-machined is there anything I can do? Either repairing the old strut inserts or finding a way to use the ones I bought?
