you guess it. Just using the FB strut tops

sweet... I thought about doing this to my Rx2. but when i measured the frame width, i found out its not even close to possible. sucks for me... good for all 1st gen owners.

well for the purpose of rally, i wont be using the FB tops due to issues with the spring seat. I am going to use subaru tops i believe for cheaper and easier reasons. Once im not a poor ass, i should have the front damper assemblies ordered.

Using the front cradle bolt does that move the 2nd gen cradle forward any? I was wondering because i saw some where else that you have to cut out and re position both or it moves the front wheels to far forward.

any updates on this?

actually kinda sorta yes. i ended up redoing the whole process on a different shell. But i used the FB springs (eibachs granted but stock should be similiar) and the tops on the FC strut. ill get pics here once its done.

Whizbang 02-23-2011 02:23 PM

ill probably make an updated video once the whole this is finished. Which should be soon. I just need some cursed FC 4 lug hubs!
