How can i easily tell if my car has serviceable or non-serviceable struts? I would like to get the Toniko struts from Millen Motorsports. The package they have for $325. Either way would these do? They say excluding sealed strut.

The easy way to tell would be to slide up the dust boot that covers the strut and look at the top of the strut housing. If the nut looks like it can be unscrewed off then it is serviceable... if there is no nut then it is sealed.

I think you mean you want to get TOKICO struts from ROD MILLEN Motorsports?

The package you are referring to is the set of serviceable struts. If you want to know what struts do, research the net a little.

Straight from the mouth of Tokico.
V6 and i4 fit the same.
92-94 use non sealed.
95-96 use sealed and different mounts than the 92-94.
the excption being most 94 models (Jap. and Amer.) built after october 94 use the same mounts and sealed struts as the 95-96 models.
This applies for all gen3 Camrys. Both V6 and i4's of a given year use the same parts.
