Hey all, just curious, is teh AU front suspension any different to EF-EL?
I got some rear shocks out of an EL and they fitted fine, is it possible to use EF-EL shocks on the front as well? I just need it to pass a RWC, got something a bit more exciting for later on. thanks |

cant do it with the series 1 either i got EL back springs in mine and had to buy the front ones separate the fronts on the E-series are the same diameter from top to bottom and the AU's front spring taper off looking like a christmas tree sorta
gotta buy ones to suit dude and if your doing it yourself get a decent set of spring compressors as the cheap ones you wind up with a shifter or socket are not good took two of us 2.5 hrs to get it done |
