can anyone refer me to a good sight to buy these? I've looked all over but cant find a strut that is definatly for the active model i made the mistake of buying the wrong control arm and dont want to deal with a return process lol anything I should know this doesnt seem to be a very heavily discussed topic because I found nothing in the threads about this at all, hell maybe ill luck out and youll tell me that there is no differene in active struts or not but somehow I doubt it

Struts on an Active? No such thing. The Active replaces the strut with an actuator.

LOL you dont get an answer within the hour and you assume no one knows the answer???

Anyway, are you looking to convert your active to standard, or are you looking to replace one of the actuators (what most people would consider the strut)..? You can put standard suspension parts on an active Q if you want...

What control arm did you buy?

Always important to keep in mind that active springs are 25% SOFTER than standard springs and the active hydra pressure holds up appozimately 280-300 pounds per wheel. Without this pressure the body sinks 3-3.5".

lots of us 'know', but we also have to work, etc........

why do you need to change your actuators?leakbounceactive ride height too low and feels like its hard as a rock?

the more info you provide, the more insightful your responses.
