Default 5th Gen Strut Swap?

So i got to thinking...can i swat the struts from a similar year w-body grand prix gtp and put them into my 97ls L67 swap?? I can't see why i couldn't.
Reason being axles would be a lot easier.

I don't believe its possible..
But I could be wrong... check with your local auto parts and or a dealer.

I'm sure someone else will chime in with more info.

The rear struts would be a direct bolt In....the fronts arent even close. Btw gtp springs wouldnt be an upgrade......they have basemodel fe1 springs just like the monte. If ya wanna upgrade use 97-04 regal rear struts/springs and regal front springs on ur stock spindles....regals had fe3 springs
