are they aftermarket shocks? i think the fronts will be fine with the standard top mounts but the rears won't. I was gonna offer you my old ones if you wanted to copy it or test fit something but they dont have any studs so pretty usless in this case :/

oh ok, you could measure the od of the shaft under the dust boot on your standard one and compare with the new one. And the spring seat might be a bit bigger so the spring wont sit properly. Apart from that they should go on no problems

as long as the ID of the spring is the same as the your lowering springs then your good to go. It's definately worth a try! coils are soooo expensive for them
