well i think i found the answer for my own question. Yes, they are the same cause I was looking at the GS-T to GSX swap and they never say you need any of the front end stuff except for the axles :)

Just did a quick check on CAPS and mitsubishiparts.com and only the shocks are not interchangable. I believe that is why when you purchase shock you have to specify with its awd or fwd.


AWD
MB910500 $107.95 $0.00 $79.02
Front suspension - Suspension components - Strut
STRUT, Eclipse, AWD - 1995-99

FWD
MB910499 $107.95 $0.00 $79.02
Front suspension - Suspension components - Strut
STRUT, Eclipse, 2WD, w/o Convertible, w/Turbo, To 2/2/95 - 1995-99 1995

Good luck!

The AWD struts are longer by about 1" longer and have a higher compression value also the springs have a higher K # value. If you have not noticed AWD cars ride a bit higher then there FWD brothers. The strut/springs are also heavier to assist with the few hundred extra lb from the extra bits.
