Brat Strut Q

Are struts side specific for Gen 2 Brats and wagons? I ask because I replaced the driver's side axle recently and found that it was actually the front wheel bearings that was causing problems. I have a donor 82 wagon, but the driver's side hub boot is torn. The passenger one is fine though and was wondering if I could just flip it around. Would it work? Thanks.

They arent side specific, but they are directional. There is a front and a backside to the strut, but I believe the left will work find on the right side and vise versa.

 

The hubs, however, ARE side specific. There's no way to use a passenger side hub on the drivers side.

Yeah thanks. Sorry If I confused anyone, but yeah I was wondering if I could use a passenger strut on the driver's side. That's good to know, I'll try it tomorrow. Thanks for the help, its good to know about the hubs though.:)
