    Does it fit the strut? Is the kit designed for your specific model?

    The strut/spring is a complete assembly but they have 1 more coil than the original ones so I will also probably have more space between the tire and fender. Can I swap the coil off the original strut to give methe original height and possibly the camber.
    Thank you for your eply

    You won't know the settled height until after installation,
    as we have no idea of the differences in the spring ratings.

    Install the new aftermarket set, you might be surprised,
    and be happy with the height and handling improvement.

    Which did you get? I am looking for struts for me online, and I need some recommendations on it. I have found some on https://www.concord-parts.com Maybe you can tell me some specific brands or numbers?
