Just wondering what the differences are between the right and left strut, they look the same to me. Even the pistons look the same length.

Also what would happen or what problems would be caused by the right strut been put on the left and vice versa?

It shouldnt make a difference that your using coilovers, you still need to connect coilovers, but thinking about it, they must be the same either way there fitted.

So if its just the droplink mounitng spaces, what problems would be caused by putting wrong one on wrong side?
