    Need some measurements for the 3rd gen rear strut

    I don't have any spares lying around anymore but can anyone get me the measurements of the rear strut body? I attached a pic to show what measurements I need. One is for the actual strut body (from the top to right where the lower fork starts) and then the length of the actual fork itself. Thanks to whoever can help me out. It doesn't matter what brand of 3rd gen strut it is as long as it's for the rear.

    Don't you also want the length from the top of the strut shaft fully extented, then fully compressed to the top on the strut itself?

    That's on of the area's that the 92-95 civic struts are really long on, plus their bodies are really tall in the rear.

    Hmm, in that case, that would help as well. I just needed a few measurements to do a rough comparison of different struts. The more measurements the better but i didn't want to ask too much as this is just for researching purposes only.
