Default coilover perch ring and strut body ?'s (for anyone with coilovers)

can anyone figure this out for me... or answer these questions...

the perch ring (the rings that you use to raise or lower a car on coilovers)... are they pretty much the same pitch thread and size for all coilovers (JIC, Tein, HKS)?

and is the diameter of the coilover (strut housing) the same? If not... how different?

i'd say within a brand they might be the same
but i dont know if you'd be able to cross-breed them

if you could only get the specs on a particular one you wanna swap and compare diameter, tread, etc.
but where you would get it manufacturer prolly
