    This might be a dumb question, but I am about to buy used 3rd Gen suspension (front and rear struts) but the coilovers are not included for $100. I want to install the “new” suspension from the 3rd Gen using my current coilovers from my 2nd Gen. My coilovers are only a couple years old because they were replaced when the frame was recalled.

    My question is, are the 3rd and 2nd gen coilovers universal?

    3rd gen coils are an inch taller. I believe you would risk the possibility of bottoming out the strut.
