Best to check your maintenance manual. There were different G102 models, i.e. the earlier blunt nosed ones and the later ones with a more pointy nose. That could already make a difference for the nose hook model.
If all fails, check with Robert Mudd in Moriarty - he is the US Astir guru - or LTB Lindner in Germany. They provide service for the Grob Astir line(s).

So it looks like the Tost node hook for the Grob 102 Astir CS is the E-72, but looking on wings and wheels there are two version "short lever" and "standard level". Anyone know which one to get?

It's easy to swap the lever from the old one if needed.
