Yeah those should be the full struts, because if you DID order the rebuildables, which is part number 365092, then you should only receive the cartridge insert for the fronts.
Hmm, this is interesting, i'll consider picking some up at a later time then. Now all you need is some springs to drop that badboy. Thanks for your input 96bluevert. This post has been edited by _mikeE: Mar 22, 2008 - 12:19 AM |

Sweet. Thanks Mike. Yep, some dropping is definately in line for her sometime this year.
edit: I guess I must have been thinking the front cartriges WERE the sealed struts for the front when I was looking at them online. This post has been edited by 96bluevert: Mar 22, 2008 - 12:33 AM -------------------- "A true car enthusiast can see the potential in any car"

i noticed they only have the sealed struts for 95-99, and inserts for 94-99.. is there a difference between a 94 from a 95 that you cannot use the sealed struts?

Highly doubt it. All of our cars are pretty universal w/ each other when it comes to parts.

Alot of the pieces you will have to get from the dealer and chances are they will not have the part on hand, you will need to special order it. i re-used the bumpers. These are the yellow spongie looking things. i also re-used the dust covers and mounts. The only thing I had to get from the dealer was the rubbers that sits on the strut, where the spring would sit on the strut. --------------------  |

Anyway are you referring to the peice that covers the "shock" part of the strut? I re-used mine, they were beat up pretty bad but they still covered the shock. Some people will say that they need to be covered to protect them, its really up to you if you want to get them or not. As for the mounts you shouldn't need new ones. The struts will look identical for the front and back. The differnece will be the part that the spring sits on. That part will be smaller for the rear (if I remember) and bigger for the fronts. -------------------- |

I dont know the term either but what i was trying to get at was that piece should be a different size for the fronts compared to the backs. This is because the springs are bigger in circumference when comparing the fronts and rears. You will probably need the rubber piece that sits on this part aswell. Yours will probably be really worn. -------------------- |

K-Weaver, do you know where you got you're bump stops from? I emailed KYB and they told me I have to go to one of the distributers, but they also said the bump stops come WITH boots (for the front), if that's the case, that kind of sucks cause I already ordered 4 boots off of IRP and I'm not sure if they include the bump stops w/ them.

Okay, rather than open up a new thread, I am going to flat out ask.
I have a 95' GT. I thought I ordered what I needed when I was on eBay, but my fronts ended up being shocks cartridges, and rear struts (I don't know any better, my first time doing this $#!t). Anyways, I wanted to ask you all am I going to need to get front struts? How easy is it to get struts from a local place such as Autozone or something? The reason why I ask is that I do not want to get front struts if I do not need them. Though I want to know my options if no one can tell me for sure, because I am going to have Jeff install these and he threw it out there about the front struts, so that is why I am asking. -------------------- 91 MR2 Turbo SW20, 92 MR2 Turbo SW20, 95 Celica GT ST204
