Anyone want to swap me their Fwd for my 4wd front struts?

(L series)

A long shot I know, but I dont want to buy new ones.

I believe the 2WD front struts are shorter than the 4WD ones? If so, I would like to swap my 4wd ones for a set of 2wd ones as the car car sits way too high now with the king springs in it.

thanks.

aw poop, not what you want , Neville. Struts themselves different as well as the springs? The ones in my Vort are tagged as FWD FI L Series and sit at correct height. If it helps , can I take some measures of mine for you insitu?

Ah, yeah, that'd be good jonno - from the lower side 8mm bolt(14head), up to the spring perch. (under where the spring sits, not where the perch is welded to the strut tube.

thanks.
