The delorean doesn't have struts, just shocks all the way around. The rear 
just have the spring mounting attached to the shock. Different shocks on 
the front are no biggie, as they're relativly standard. If you want to use 
different ones on the rear then about the only option is the shock adapters 
on John Hervey's site that supports the springs and lets you bolt on normal 
shocks.
