biffanyus Posted April 28, 2004 Share Posted April 28, 2004 Well, I got front strut catriges for my 80 Gen1 brat and my mechanic put them in just fine. No problems from what I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caboobaroo Posted April 28, 2004 Share Posted April 28, 2004 From what I know, all gen 1's have strut cartridges in the front and the rear is regular shocks. It involves a big wrench to get the nut/cap thing off the top of the cartridge that has to be removed and then the cartridge will slide out but **WARNING** from what my FSM says, there should be oil inside the cartridge. Instead of being a fully enclosed gas strut, it is an oil filled and it also uses part of the housing it slides into for the bottom. So basically be careful when removing the nut/cap from the top and removing the cartridge from the housing:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
