Hi guys, i running 240k struts in my 1200 coupe i, i couldn't use them on a stanza strut, the bolt spacing is different (1981 stanza), i'm using 270mm rotors, i bought them new about a month ago. u guys must be using early model stanza struts. the spring dia on a 240k are to large, mine have been converted to coil over. to eliminate that problem.
