On the front strut on the jetta does the shock absorber come out of the strut like a cartage?
Or do i have to order the whole strut?
Thanks, Corey
i THINK that they made cars both ways, but i think most of them you just drop in a new cartridge..
It all depends on whether you have the original struts, probably not so what have they been replaced with in the last 30 years?
I really do think mine are stock struts, The struts are welded to the so called cartridge or shock. And the only place i know who sells the whole strut is worldimpex.com and parts place which is crazy priced
Does anyone else know where to get them. Or whos running aftermarket brand struts
PArt # 27A580 on RockAuto.com $52

Put your old spring and a new strut mount on and DONE!.
Thanks guys im going to order one of the two not decided yet.
