Default 92 es and 95 es struts the same ?

Are the 92 es 3 and 95 es 3 struts the same front and rear? any help would be great thanks the reason i ask is because i plan on putting on a fbss fast bag system and the person i am going through has direct brackets for a 95 but not 92 so if its the same it will save me a whole lot of money.

Apparently you can use up to 2000 ES300 for 1992 ES300.

Regards.

ehhh im not sure if that last post is true or not. DIfferent chassis, i dont believe the 2000 on a 92 would work. As far as 92 and 95, yeah, as far as i know, they are the same.

I believe the 92-93 cars had serviceable struts, meaning you could replace a cartridge instead of the entire strut. I think the size of the strut, however, was the same 92-96.

i knew that they were servicable but i am doing away with struts alltogether the shop i am going through for my cylinder kit has a catalogue that list 95 es brackets but not 92 but since they are the same size the 95 brakets should work.

Default thanks

fbss= front back side side its not actually gonna be fastbags but it will be air cylinders more reliable that way but just as fast as fastbags. to start im gonna have just a four switch set up ie. front back side side but i plan on putting a ten switch that will let me control each cylinder individually (want to three wheel) and it will also have see saw and pancake.
