Upgrade Suspension

[Capri82blackmagic]

I have a 82 capri i am trying to upgrade brakes,rotors,spindles,calipers & struts to a 87 thru 93 is this all i need.

the upper strut mount was changed in 87 also as i recall, so that means you need to change that as well if you are going to use the 87 up struts.

Thank you.

any time. what are you goals for the car?

To restored and also have the engine rebuilt, new interior.I'm also putting 17x9 on the front and 17x10 on the back.

since you are going to 17 inch wheels, why not upgrade to five lug wheels, and cobra brakes at the same time? you can use the 87 struts, but use the 94-95 mustang spindle, and front control arm for better suspension geometry, swap to the 15:1 94 steering rack, and have a solid braking system that will handle just about everything you might put the car through, as well as improving the handling of the car.

All the wheels that i have seen there is only one that i like the Saleen SC Style Chrome.

add some aftermarket caster camber plates too. The stock strut mounts are worn out.
