Okay, very strange situation here. I recently ordered a set of Bog Pro-Gas struts for the brick, and I was going to get my mechanic put them in. I ordered them from a place that I have order parts from before, and that is where the fun begins.

First, they sent me 2 struts, the boge pro-gas and the saches. I called and told them that they sent me the wrong part (btw, the sachs is very different looking than the boge), so they sent me another strut. To my surprise, they sent me the exact same saches as the first. Okay, losing patience here.

I checked the saches web site and the numbers that is on the saches strut is for the turbo. So I called my parts place, and they said it would work fine with my 88 245 non-turbo. I said send me the correct one.

Any thoughts?
