Ok i am getting confused as to what struts are, i've searched but couldn't see what they were talking about cuz the links to the pics were dead...so this is what i found.
our cars have struts...are they all the way around?? Is this a Strut  So would it be correct to say that a strut is a combination of a Shock and Springs. Isn't that the same thing as a Coilover expect that its adjustable? If i got coilovers do i still need shocks?? Can i just buy Springs and Shocks and be done with it or do i need something else to hold the shock to the springs?? sorry for the dumb question, but i need to know. Thanks |

well not that i know of but in theory they should be the same considering toyota didn't change the suspension of the celi at all between 5th and 6th gen. I think with coilovers and springs the rates will be off but other than that they should be the same.
