can i use sedan stock absorbers for my Hatchback? - Toyota Yaris Forums

i'm driving Yaris 1.5s Hatchback. i was told that Hatchback uses different shock absorbers (stock) from the sedan. is that true? my logic is that both uses the same chassis. they should be using the same absorbers too. Yaris spare parts are very expensive here. can i use the sedan's absorbers instead?

i think 09-10 LB actually have different part numbers for sedan and LB, but every after market company says their shocks and struts are good for 07-10 LB and sedan.

I'm not anywhere near an expert, but from what I've looked at they seem to be the same for both LB and sedan.
