I thought my replacement struts were going to be identical to my old ones, but that's not the case. The bottom looks a little bit beefier, especially right where my old strut broke. Hmmm...

So, with these new struts (no gap/squeezing), so I use the ball joint with the "V" notch (not the rounded notch)?

Taking a look at that strut, and as far as I could blow it up, it looks like the bottom of the strut is cracked.

Take a good look at that before you put that on any car.
