Does the Ae71 have the AE86 size struts or the Ke70 size? and also what is the inner and outer dimension of the springs?

same as KE70 = no good

no idea on spring size

can tell you strut tube diameter though

KE70/AE71 = 48mm
AE86 = 51mm

pretty sure that KE one is right definatly smaller though

put it this way

you can fit KE70 springs onto 86 struts but not the other way around :P

i had a few sets of springs a t home but alas all are gone so i can't check measurements for you :(

front ke70/ae71 have a uniform coil 105mm ID
ae86 is 105mm ID at the bottom but a tighter winding at the top(90mm ID)
