I've searched all over, yes even using the "search" button. lol. and i cannot seem to find the length of a 74+ super beetle strut. If anyone knows or has one laying around could you measure it? Thanks.

They're the in between length inserts.
355mm/14"

The 3 bolt ones are 2" longer and the mk1 Golf/Rabbit that are in all the adjustable struts are 2" shorter.

Thanks Joel. How long is the outer housing "the part with the spring cup"?

I'll be picking your brain soon for a Suby conversion.
