I've had a search and can't find anything specific. I believe ex-police Commodores typically have uprated (FE2) suspension fitted as standard. Is there similar for AU falcons?
I have a 1999 Forte live axle falcon which about to hit 250k and the suspension is not its best. Consequently I'm looking to get new shocks, but am unsure if it uses standard ones or has uses a different one to base the base forte. |

It will either have the standard suspension (likely) or have Tickford suspension (not so likely). Either way the same shocks apply for both.

It won't matter what it has now, find yourself a good product that fits the live axle and use it.

I had a 98 forte ex nsw police and it had the xr suspension on it and a 3.23 lsd,
compared to the standard forte suspension its about 80mm lower. If i remember correctly the shocks in the car were red coloured. i
