[QUOTE="tommyk90, post: 2515128, member: 545293"] They are attached to the struts, and the struts are attached to both ends of the suspension. The springs on a strut car are NOTHING like the spring on a leaf spring or "open" spring setup. Strut setup. Notice how the strut and coil spring are one piece. [IMG]http://autozone.com/images/cds/gif/large/0900823d80182ee5.gif[/IMG] Coil spring setup. Notice how the coil and shock are two separate pieces [IMG]http://www.speedyautomotive.com/Coil-Spring-Suspension.jpg[/IMG] Thus why I said "off the top of my head" [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] I can't describe the rear suspension of all FWD cars. Towing capacity is NOT vehicle capacity. Towing capacity is the amount of weight the car could handle if it was towing a trailer on a hitch. [/QUOTE]
