Do these work on regular neon?

Post by kc2005ptgt » Sun Apr 22, 2007 1:18 am

They are listed only under the SRT-4, but I got them for free, so I am wondering if they work on the regular neon, and what the hell fo they do anyway??? :lol: :rofl2:

If they work, and are an :quotes: upgrade :quotes: I will go ahead and put them on the old ACR. If not, they are for sale.

:D

Here is the product and it's called Mopar Rear Tension Struts

Provides improved toe stability (reduced bump steer) which virtually eliminates wheel hop under heavy braking, also provides more positive suspension control for improved driver feedback and dynamic stability.

Rear suspension... If you take a look at your back wheels, theres a bar that almost touches them in the inside....
