Exclamation IS/GS Do they use the same struts??

Hi All,

Tried a search, but didnt find anything

Would like to know if the 2IS use's the same struts as the 3GS?

I know they use the same rear camber and toe arms also upper front control arm, also they share the same chassis.

So would anyone know if a the struts are the same?

thnx

Neither one uses struts - they both use shock absorbers!
