hey guys!
please forgive my ignorance or any other stupidity that i may have , i have done searches and the amount of info is amazing yet making my eues and brain hurt... so my Q is this...
i have been offered both sides, front vented discs, complete strut house, not sure if comes with calipers, no shock or springs... though i have TA22 shocks, and both standard springs and 2" lowered springs
the front suspension setup comes from an RA23, would this go into the TA22 directly? if not what headache will i have to be prepared for? and can i use my shocks and springs?

Fade-e,
The TA22 Struts are shorter thanthe RA23 units. Depending on how they have been set up you may find they raise the front of your car an inch or so.

are the springs the same though? cause i got 2" lowered springs... if they fit and raises the car an inch then the grinder can come out for that inch to even the front and rear again...
but are they the same springs???

further to my last post, i remember reading i think its ryans page (the guy in america running the 10s) when he did the front brake conversion he added like an invh to the lower control arm to compensate for camber...
keeping that in mind, than theoretically i would believe it possible to cut the strut/shock housing by an inch???
guys any ideas on this theory of mine??????????????
