Hi, Just wondering if any one knows if the rear non refillable std A187 strut is the same as the later model 85 Starion/Conquest Wide body???
Have seen some on ebay in United States and wondering if they are interchangable.. The starion conquest manual i have lists them as being the same but some wide bodys came out with 5 stud axels so are they??

The axles are not part of the strut (like the front), and they look identical side by side.

In a word Yes!

All rear struts are the same through the models. Left and Right are slightly different for fitment of brake hoses.

Propose101 on ebay have the only rear struts available for sale!

Hubs and axles determine the 5 stud v's 4 stud stuff....

Yep there the ones im looking at the MooKeeh gas strut..might be worth the purchase for $250.00 the pair shipped..

yes they're identical, and the mookeeh ones are the only option there is other than cutting and shutting inserts into the original ones.
