Does anybody know the Gabriel part number for a rear strut on a 1986 GL 4WD sedan? The strut part number on there now is KYB VL23 21007GA431. Also, what is the difference between the struts on 2WD vs. 4WD? The difference between sedan, wagon and coupe?

Gabriel.com has a product guide you can drill down through and find the right ones

yeah, tried that but I got a bit confused. Maybe I'm just looking into this too much (which happens a lot with me). According to Gabriel.com, the part I need is g51173, again for my GL 4WD sedan. I happened to notice that this part is also for a Loyale FrWD coupe. That's why I was trying to get some knowledge about the differences in struts between 4WD and FrWD struts and the differences between struts on wagons, sedans and coupes. I'm thinking that there is a possibility that the listed part number is wrong, however unlikely.

your probably fine to go with what it says for your model, there is a lot of interchangeability between cars
