Strut Assembly Diagram

Does anyone have an exploded view diagram of the front strut assembly for a 1973 Superbeetle? I am rebuilding mine, but it looks like the previous owner didn't put them back together properly. I have the VW Service manual (made by Bentley), but it only has a diagram of the assembled strut...doesn't help me figure out the order of parts for reassembly.

Or as an alternative, can anyone list the order of parts to reassemble?

Is it the early or late suspension? A '73 could have either one.

This is the early 3-bolt strut:

I'm not familiar enough with the 2-bolt struts to know if the upper portions are the same.

Hope that helps.
