Default Help with bilstein strut measurements

Hi, I am trying to replace my blown HKS Hipermax LS+ with bilstein struts while still using the HKS threaded sleeve, springs and top mounting, because HKS stops rebuilding this coilover already.

So, just in case someone here has bilstein struts laying around, can you please help measure the physical dimensions of the struts. It can be from bilstein HD (B6) or Sport (B8) struts measurements. What I need is the strut body diameter, strut body length, the distance from circlip location to bottom mounting hole, shaft length, shaft diameter and top nut thread size. Front and back struts please, if possible. Your help is very much appreciated, thank you.
