Hi Moha sorry but those front struts are not for 131 racing, they fit the older 131 with the complete strut that comes out in one piece,
the konis for the 131 racing are part no 87-2062 sport, i know i have brand new ones for my car & new  rear konis also
good luck with the sale, here are some pics of mine (not for sale)

I've just removed some yellow sport front Koni shocks from my doner 131 Sport. They were fitted with proper lowered springs. The number on these shocks are the same as those red ones for sale.

I've also got a set of brand new red and yellow shocks(not for sale) which are numbered- 87-2062 sport. The insert is longer on these.

The red Koni's can be used but I suspect shorter springs would be advised?

I was gutted as although the shocks removed operate perfectly, one is bent. Someone has elongated the bottom strutt hole to compensate for the damage, but I won't be fitting them. I've fitted original fiat blue strutts on the lowered springs instead.

Hi sev131 if you have the red ones fitted to a 131 sport then they were made fit as the 131 racing ones are the number i previously quoted, i know that they are slightly shorter & i also have the proper 131 racing lowering springs, could you if possible post some pics of the red struts fitted? might help the sale of these ones maby? & would help those that want koni struts as the 131 racing ones are no longer avaliable although the rears are still avaliable as they have different applications, cheers sid.

Hi Sid, the red ones that i've got are still boxed new. Had a look at them this morning and they have the same number as the yellow shocks for the Sport/Racing. (87-2062 sport)

I had to check as I wasn't sure if I had the right shocks.

I'm sure the red ones aren't as stiff as the yellow.

Hi Sid,

Sorry mate, forgot to mention that when I took the top strutt nut off, it's was packed by washers. I think this is what you have to do to make fit as the you run out of threads when tightening.

Cheers Sev

The yellows are pretty hard, even adjusted down. I have a full set fitted to the silver 131 in my avatar with lowered springs. The ride is much harder than a standard 131 Supermirafiori (although I have not driven a sport).

i just checked the yellow koni against a new blue standard racing strut & they have the exact same dimensions when the ram is fully extended on both the size is 234mm, koni red are "koni special" & koni yellow are "koni sport" thats what koni call them.
