G'day guys...
What is the difference between sedan and wagon rear struts? I know height difference but how much difference?
Cheers

About 1-2 inch give or take sag. I swapped the wifes rears for a set of gt sedan struts and it dropped enough to clip the 20's on big bumps. Measurement from rim to guard was 105mm down to 65mm after.

there are spacers available that fit between body and strut top to make up the difference....

Yeah I bought a set from the states from a place called paranoid fabrications but I have noticed cruisin has posted he can make them to any spec you want.
