personally I would probably stay away from that. I think you will run into issues with finding the right shaft/coupler set up.

plus it looks like it would have the same problem as the TLR hardware. There is no brass sleeve so you would be running steel against aluminum. After 5 runs mine already shows wear. And I greased it twice in those 5 runs. I am looking for a new strut now with a brass sleeve.

Hard to tell in the pic, but it looks like it does have a sleave bearing. Guess you would have to ask the seller......
