mvd Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 In an earlier post I asked about the shocks for a 92 leone wagon. I believe this has to be a Loyale wagon. The confusion is due to the fact that this type is simply called L Series in Europe, but I suppose it doesn't matter for the type of shocks?

85Sub4WD Posted January 23, 2006 Share Posted January 23, 2006 yes, the Loyale, EA82 (GL & DL subcatagories), Leone, "L wagon" are all the same car - check year, because the early 80's ones are completely different than the 1985-later ones (OHC engine 85'-later vs OHV engine pre-'85) - shocks/struts are basically interchangeable as long as both cars are 4WD or 2WD (you could probably get it to work, but I would not recommend it) - having the same bodystyle is preferable - the sedan's shocks are softer than the wagon's - but beyond that, you should be OK - remember to also change both front/both rear - changing only one shock is VERY dangerous because it creates an imbalence in the vehicle's suspension good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvd Posted January 23, 2006 Author Share Posted January 23, 2006 Thanks for the info on the struts/shocks. Impossible to get good used ones around here so I'll probably end up with new Monroe's ($85 each...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
