Weird Question: KW V3 Strut Body Diameter?
 
Hello everyone. Simple question, but probably an odd one. Does anyone know offhand (or have easy access to a caliper to measure) the outer diameter of the lower strut housing on the KW V3. I'm looking to order some rubber end caps online that I want to slip over the base of the strut to protect the lower knob that adjusts bump, but I'm not sure what diameter to order. It's a real PITA to try to reach under the car with a tape measure to get the circumference, so I figured I'd ask if anyone else already knew, or could easily find this out for me.

Thanks in advance.

Worth every penny, buy it and use it for 5+ years for random shit like this:

Used it all the time in college (aerospace engineering.) Been meaning to buy one. Don't currently have one though, so was just curious if anyone had the dimensions offhand, or knew of a schematic somewhere.
