Question.

Besides spring rating, is there any other difference between sedan RWD and sedan AWD struts or coilover kits?

I found coilovers with following rating that I think would work well on my 37x sedan, I currently have swift springs on my car that I have had for 30k miles, and my front struts are in bad shape now.
I was going to go with Monroe struts and other components that dont come with the strut but, doing just the front is close to ~370 bucks. I could get the whole kit that covers front and back for little more.
Any thoughts?

Spring Rate(Front)14 kg/mm (784 lbs/inch)
Spring Rate(Rear)12 kg/mm (672 lbs/inch)

 

The rears are the same for AWD and RWD models but the fronts are physically different in shape and structure.

The fronts cannot be be interchaged. THE AWD struts mount on a fork that the front axles go between and are much shorter, the RWD front struts mount directly to the LCA...

See the sticky in the suspension section of the forum on coilovers made for AWD cars

 

Thanks man!
I had feeling something was off, I read sticky some time while ago and couldnt recall.

 

It's crazy that there really aren't any aftermarket alternatives for shocks for the AWD platform. Even finding ANY replacements can be a chore, looks like this is a decent deal & you'd just have to swap springs & lower fork mounts. Comes with the top mounts and those can be expensive to replace from the factory.

Thats a pretty good deal, I just pick up spring compressor from harbor freight for 30 bucks and should be golden.
Thanks!

 

Be careful w/ those, I'd rent from AutoZone or O'Reillys they're much stronger & safer.

 

Yeah, I will look around before new struts arrive, Id rater have my own set than keep renting.
By the way the website has some really good deals, I hope the quality is just as good.
