i got lucky as i ordered complete front strut assemblies from Rimmers and went with all they had in stock - i was happy just to have OEM parts and complete assemblies i was able to fit myself - the fact they are a match for the parts removed is a bonus

edit to last post

4 Springs for v6 - 2 shock absorbers


given that the spring codes start at the 1.8 though V6 to Diesel - and, in progression the last(of 3) code for the 1.8 is shared with the 1st V6 code - V6 codes 2 and 3 are shared with Diesel 1 and 2 .... it would seem to suggest there is a "Spring Rate" variance

my springs are first on the list - and i can confirm they are..... not Stiff

I'm intrigued

Add to that,the omission of the rear anti roll bar,that would maybe effect different spring rates.
