djbroadus Posted December 24, 2003 Share Posted December 24, 2003 looking for some opinions for some new shocks for ea81 hatch, best ones? Any shocks that will increase ride height without a total lift kit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilesFox Posted December 24, 2003 Share Posted December 24, 2003 keep in mind that shocks do not suppor the weight of the car, but rather controls the rate at which it bounces up and down you can crank up the torsion bar by turning the nut on top of the suspension tube(4wd) the easiest rout would be to look into using an ea82 rear coilover, but you wil lhave to fab the top mount Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djbroadus Posted December 26, 2003 Author Share Posted December 26, 2003 i was lookin in my haynes manual and saw the adjustable air shocks stock from subaru where can you find these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilesFox Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 for those you would need the subaru air setup, or at least the right piping for the air lines and a valve to fill them, release air. but anyway, some gl-10's and xts had the air ride suspension.

djbroadus Posted December 26, 2003 Author Share Posted December 26, 2003 Do they make KYB AGX's for EA81 Or any other adjustable shocks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qman Posted December 26, 2003 Share Posted December 26, 2003 They make KYB's for Subes. The air suspension is on the '85 and newer EA82 models. Mostly found on the GL10's and Turbo's. You may want to just save some money for a while and buy the kit instead of spending alot of money to get little or no results. This is simply my opinion.
