I'm trying to figure out which inserts I need to get in order to obtain optimum results by running shortened struts in the front, and I have a few questions.

1. Does anyone know the stroke range for factory shocks on the front of our Celicas?

2. And also, does anyone know the stroke range for other MacPherson-strut-equipped Toyota cars such as the AW11, SW20, AE92, and AE86?

3. What's the inner-diameter of our stock strut housings?

Punch's thread is very helpful but I'm looking for just a bit more information.

Thanks,
Christian Coomer

TTE just confirmed that the sealed, non-serviceable struts are indeed the same length.

False information just costed me a few hundred dollars. frown.gif
