Suspension on 1986 XT


Recommended Posts

Can any one tell me how much trouble it is to change the suspension on an 86 XT Turbo. It seems that the compresser has had it & I am told they are £600.00 new. Somebody told me that you can change the suspension to normal springs? is this right. Any info would help.

Yeah - you can. Just get some non air EA82 struts and install them. From what I understand this isn't a huge job - just a strut change. Might want to get the EA82 adjustable rear struts. Just telling you that because most of the EA82's I've seen don't have them, so you have to look around a bit for them. Take a look at the mounting points and make sure they are the same - save you a trip back to the JY that way - just in case.

 

A LOT of people do this - I have heard it jacks the back up a bit higher than normal....
