    Default Usable XT130 pars for AE71?

    hey everyone,
    I'm a bit of a newbie with toyota's so i need your help with one question.

    What usable suspension and steering parts can you use from a XT130 corona?

    I have a AE71 and want to stiffen up the front. What setup is recommended?

    I currently have TRD 8kg springs to fit 86 struts. Can i use XT130 struts with TRD springs, xt130 lca's and steering arms? Whats bits n peices will fit or wat combination is required to fit into the front of my car? Also, what shocks?

    cheers
    Pat

    Can i use XT130 struts and sigma lca's? Do i need longer tie rods?

    The only reason i want to mix xt130 and sigma parts is because they're easily available where i live as no lazy k#nt on here wants to send parts lol.

    Just wanting to know the cheapest setup

    the xt130 LCA's give you about -1.5 camber
    the sigma arms are a little longer so more negative camber

    as for using the struts i'm not sure maybe try a search

    yeah you can use the struts. they are the same diam as 86 gear. brakes are a little better? aswell over 86 stuff.

    if you use gh sigma arms and xt130 struts and ra 40 celica rack tubes you will have approx -2.5 camber the xt130 struts have less camber than 86 ones

    Not all.

    Early XT130's are Single piston Girlock calipers (quadlight front)
    Late XT130's are Twin piston Sumitumo calipers (twinlight front)
    RT132 / RT133 are all Twin piston Sumitumo calipers (quadlight or twinlight)
    You can have any brew you want... as long as it's a Datsun / Corolla / What is that?

    XT130 struts with girlock calipers do not fit on AE71 steering arms.
    2mm centre distance difference
