what type are these rear struts?

Post by vidler » Sun Feb 18, 2007 9:04 pm

just wondering what the rear struts are that i got from a local wreck?

theye are dark blue, which originally made me think theye were monroe's. on closer inspection they are made in USA. only distinctive numbers are 223 and what could be the part number PG07RC1A. Cant see a brand name on them anywhere. For an L series by the way

I think the 85 L series had adjustable struts still... I have seen them on a few L's now.
