1st Gen Air Struts into my 2001. Yay or Nay?

Post by Tam » Sat Jul 19, 2008 6:40 pm

Hello,

I am able to get the 1st gen Air struts, compressor, air bags, valves, etc, all necesary components for between $200-$300. This is one hell of a deal!

The 1st air struts are meant to be a direct bolt-on replacement of the 95-99 neons, so the same question applies to these air struts. Would they fit? My stock suspension has about 147k miles on them and I figured it was time to change it out.

So what do you guys think?

Does not fit 2gn. Bolt pattern for upper mount is different among other things.
