R32 front coilovers

[IB6UB9]

I have heard from a few people that you can run r32 skyline front coilovers in the rear of your sprinter.

Has anyone had direct experience with fitting/using these?

I understand that I need to change the lower bush and machine a spring perch for the top but is there anything else I need to look out for???

Also if anyone has any pics they can post up that would be great!!!!!!

I have personally seen r32 front shocks in the rear of a ke70

but never the full coilover

I saw this done a while ago on one of the malaysian(I think) corolla forums. Had some fancy looking top.

I tried looking for a pic when there was another thread concerning this but I couldn't find it.

r31 rear coilovers go in fairly simply if I'm not mistaken. havent seen it personally, just "word on the street"

truenosedan,
What was the length like on the shocks?
Reason I ask is because I have a set of apexi N1 coilovers and wouldnt mind using them. Only down side is they have 11kgs springs, might have to get some new ones.

I would say you would have to get new springs

also in most cases you have to reinforce the shock mount quite a bit with rear colies
