Factory struts interchangable though the years?
I found a great deal on some factory struts for a 96-00. Mine are shot. The guy says they'll fit just fine on my 92-95. Is this true? Does the application matter if its 2 door or 4 door?
And if they will fit, will it affect the ride height? Are the spring rates the same?

Re: Factory struts interchangable though the years? (PinkMaggit)
Im confused...
The rears wont fit, because of the body style difference????? or because of 2 door to four door difference??????

i believe its the different generations. Plus if they are factory struts they probably won't last long with lowering springs. Unless your getting them for a great deal for aboth i wouldn't bother buying it.

Rears wont fit. IMO, its not worth it unless its dirt cheap. THey will blow out with lowering springs.
The prokits are a higher spring rate than stock springs so they will wear out the shocks even faster than stock springs.
I take it youre not lowered already so if its a good deal just use the springs and toss the shocks.
