QUOTE=Goat Blower;436458]The only thing that would matter is if the strut body had a different diameter in the back, fronts are the same from FWD to AWD. And I think the bodies are the same diameter so it shouldn't make a difference.

FWD has a lower ride height? And why would that matter with these?[/QUOTE]

Yes. It wouldn't matter with these because they don't include the strut bodies, I thought they did at first.

Fwd rear struts won't bolt up to an awd car, the lower mounts are different. My friend accidentally bought fwd complete coil overs for his awd. After the install his ride hieght was way to low and there was no more room for adjustment to raise his ride hieght. He also had to ghetto rig the rears to even bolt up at all.
