RS Sedan struts into GX Wagon?

Post by scott » Sat Nov 24, 2012 11:05 am

Can anyone confirm that Gen1 Liberty RS sedan struts will fit straight into a Gen 1 Liberty GX wagon?
Looking to ditch the dodgy air suspension.
Have found these RS complete spring/struts and only have a few days to score them.
Anyone's help would be great!:)

Yep. Seeing that your car has air struts, then it will be an AWD model then it will be a straight swap. If it was 2WD then only the front would have fitted.

you might find it sits a bit low in the rear with sedan gear. That can be solved wiht a set of king springs later if you need to.
