Fox body suspension parts?

[xr8d302]

Which ones will fit on our cars? I have a chance to buy some pretty good things out of wrecked fox and i'm wondering how badly i can rape it before some other swindler like me comes along and finishes it off....

ANY HELP will be greatly appreciated

springs, shocks, struts, control arms can all be interchanged and are pretty much 79-04.....

Agreed!

are you sure about shocks/struts???

Fox and SN shocks and struts and a little bit different - one is shorter than the other. But if using lowered cars, it is said to not matter much.

Yea i was told to run fox struts/shocks since im lowered by strange i think or another company i talked to.

if you lower your car 1.5" or more with the stock shocks and struts you run the risk of your suspension bottoming out, the fox ones are shorter.....1" i believe, so if you lower it only an inch with the fox shocks struts, you will have the same travel as factory.....supposedly

i have my car lowered and just bought the 87-93 tokicos, and before that i had cheepy fox body shocks struts on it.....did great....actually improved the ride over fact. struts shocks with it already lowered....

why would you want to downgrade your suspension? stock for stock your's is newer, and parts like the front control arms are worse than your sn-95 ones are.

from the way he sounded in his post, i don't think he was buying stocks parts.... sounded to me like the car he was speaking of had a pretty tirck suspension

I'd rather see the thread starter think when he asks something. If you want an accurate response, Post an accurate Question.

haha, thanks Jason...

exactly, the car's got a lot of aftermarket suspension peices, not even sure which ones yet, i just wanted to know which one's i can pull off of it before i go see it....that way i don't have to make more than a few trips.

He's also got a built 306 which i'm highly considering...

the guy managed to whack his car off of a pole while participating in some late night competition. Then he moved to Argentina about a week later, so i figure it's just my duty to put all of his old parts to good use

i hear ya.....

bringin this back from the dead guys...

I am gonna buy some used KYB GR2 struts for a fox body for a good price. You are sure there won't be any fitment issues?
