Default Konis 3rd gen rear 4th gen front

I came across a set of rear konis (from a 3rd gen) and was wondering if they'd work ok with the 4th gen konis (fronts)
Or would I need the front and rear to be both 4th gen items
I'm planning on doing the heater hose mod, and the lower spring perch, using stock springs, the car is basically a DD and am looking for a little lower, and a better/more controlled ride

yes they will work, Sam sells 2 different sets he calls 4/3's or 4/4's. That means 4th gen up front and 3rd in back...and of course that means the other are 4th gen all around. the 4/3's are just a lil cheaper in price and not as easy to adjust. lowering with the spring perch up front and heater hose in back on stock springs will look killer too. Do it, u won't regret it.

Does Strano sell just the front shocks, I can't find just the fronts (I found the 4, but not just the front 2)
