Hi Guys
First of many posts to this forum i hope..
Got a RT133 with an 18R speedway car and having trouble finding good shocks for the front.
Car is standard height and the requirements would be like a rally car i would think.
Tracks are allways rough at the end of the night and the kyb's are just to soft .
I was wondering if complete struts of another model are adaptable.Maybee something with a better range of shocks available.
Cant understand why theres no good selection for RT133..lol
Any help would be appreciated..
Any shocks for the front of a AE86 will fit in the RT132/XT130 struts. The AE86 shocks are about 5mm shorter in the body, so will fit, or require a small spacer maybe. Every other dimention is the same.
I know you can get Koni red shocks for the front of a AE86 at least, and I think they may be adjustable. About $260 each. = $520.
RWD Celicas also use a similar front shock size that should fit.
I recently replace the struts in my RT142. I bought MOnroe GT GAS for $65 each. They should have been about $120 but they stuffed up my order so I got them cheaper. They were from Auto one which regularly im my area has 45% shocks.
