thanks i understand now about the bearings.. and yes im going to put them on an "oem" strut i know everyone talks about them going bad quickly but i got a darn good deal on these and i honestly didnt have the money to spend(konis arent cheap). I figure as long as im not constantly bottoming out they will last for a little while.

my current question is im not sure but i may have 4 of the same strut. I believe it is a front strut. Is there any way to use the same strut for the front and rear. I mean with the GCs you are going to cut off all of the spring perches and stuff i just thought that the struts were a complete different size so i didnt think that using 4 of the same would be possible.

the part number is a gabriele ultra g-force G55692 .. its comes up as a front strut for a 95-97 contique. I need to double check but i think i have 4 of these. With GCs and with camber kits i can use the 95-97 struts on the front correct?? no chance on the rear correct?

thoughts, suggestions, opinions??
