Help with suspension purchase

Hello All,

I'm doing an suspension upgrade on my 92 v6 le. Decided to go with HR Sport springs and Tokico blues.

For the struts i've decided to replace the entire strut assembly. Ebay auctions can be confusing where i have to decipher between carridge and assemblies.

To that end, if I get the following would i be okay?

http://cgi.ebay.ca/TOKICO-HP-shocks-...713.m153.l1262

Thanks.

The problem is Tokico only makes inserts for my model year ->1992, i checked their website.

So the question then becomes, could i use the non-serviceable struts for the 94-97 model years?

I'm not sure if my car serviceable struts or not. Following King's advice from a related thread i want to put in non serviceable struts.

The part numbers listed in that auction matches the struts for the 94-97 model year camrys.

Will the NON-serviceable struts for the 94-97 struts fit on my 92 camry.


And thank you for quick reply

Just for reference, I got mine from seller jdmwerks13 on eBay and it was an excellent transaction.

Here's a link to their eBay store...

http://stores.ebay.com/jdmwerks13_W0...QQftidZ2QQtZkm

My Camry is a '95 V6, so I can't comment on the '92 aspect.

strut bearings????!

Does the 93 need front strut bearings? Toyota sas mine do, but I've not seen them in the old OE taken off or the parts list or Toyota's shop manual for the 92...
