Default KYB rear strut for 2013 AWD

Does anyone know if the KYB rear shock absorber part #7240000
will fit AWD? I have conflicting info depending on the site I look them up at. Most of them say RWD but another thread on here they said they thought they were the same.

TIA

I have OEM RWD shocks on my AWD. I don’t know why there are so many part numbers…

So what you have would normally be on a RWD? Did you change yourself? If so, we’re there any length differences? Yeah I’m not sure why so many variances.

I replaced the one that’s currently installed myself a couple of years ago. At the time, I wasn’t aware of the aftermarket option through KYB, so I purchased some takeoffs from a member on here who was going to coil overs. They seem to be fine, if there are any differences they are subtle and don’t affect the characteristics as far as I can tell.
And yes, the part number on my shocks cross reference as the part (one of many) that applies to the GRL10, which is the RWD version
