I recall back 20 years ago, people were making a hybrid strut and hub on VS. It was a bit of stuffing about. Back then it mostly VT.

I'm not saying yes as in a straight swap but I do believe it is do-able.

Fairly sure a mate had VE coil-overs in his 98 VS ute, not a straight swap but they got it to work.

Yea can be done, Sway bar link is the only difference. You need to change to a whiteline adjustable swaybar and either match up a link or buy a control arm mount kit.

Yes they (Front Coilovers) do.
I took the Kings ProSport Coilovers out of the front of my VY Ute & bolted them straight into my 95 model VS Commodore sedan perfectly. No difference.
Cheers

Front suspension was relatively unchanged from VR-VF so I'm going to say fronts yes, rears no.

Yea come to think of it VY would swap straight over but VZ wouldn't.
It's been a long time since I've done struts in a commodore.
