Hi Ral1rt, I am looking to stiffen up the ride in my Missus 2008 VR and as far as I can work out they will be a straight swap for the OEM's. 
I know I am probably pushing my luck
but are those struts still available and how much would you like?? Part 2 of the dumb question is, if I can tee up the transport could you forward them to WA (unless there are some ones in WA floating about, hint hint guys)??
P.S. I am not looking to Hijack the thread with the last question

Hey tony, No probs mate
The coil overs are a direct replacement but they will increase the ride height on the vr. I'm not sure why but they seem to increase the height of them. If you wanted to lower the car aswell you could put a lower progressive rate spring on the coil over but to be honest, if its just a stiffer ride your after, maybe a better set of springs would be a better option.
Postage will be expensive too, $150 + to WA as they way a tonne
IMO try to find some stiffer springs in WA. Maybe RPW can help. It will give you an easier solution.

They prob jack up the height compared to the regular lancers to deal with the extra weight of the AWD system.

i thought only EVO's came with MC McPherson dampers.

No, most cars have McPherson struts up front Blake, including the CJ.
