Air cylinders

Ok, so I just bought a 03 Civic Sedan...I previously owned an 01....I figured I'd get another one..since I missed the Civic...

Anyhow....My friends 00 Civic has air Cylinders...that he is going to sell to me CHEAP....

Will they fit? If not...How much work is needed to get them on their....

I've notived that the his car has two shock bolt screws or whatever.. and mine has three....So..???

Thanks..

im thinking....no...not 100%, but other than the need for 3 mounting points on ours, ie bolt holes, the dampers are diff sizes...i think...


anybody else on this one??

We installed it on his car to start with...So I figured I could do it...till I saw my set-up was different...

Anyone else know anything...

Appreciate it...guys.

instead of an air bag it's a cylinder like a air strut. it works the same way as a bag except its a strut that can ajust with the air. and if i'm not mistaken air struts can go up higher than bags. but bags can go lower than struts. some cars can take either bags or cylinders. others can only take one or the other.

Forget it now..I couldn't get them on their so I sold them for 800 bucks installed and put some 20's on it with the spinner kit...

To get "these" 20's on their... I had to even shave some of the corner of the brakes...yeah...But I got them on their..20's with spinners...I'm just gone slam it... It actually looks good..
