Those are XT130 struts with XT130 perches.
Hey guys i am having troubles in finding out what strut my car is using.. i was told there xt130 struts "by the owner that was unsure" , hilux calipers and pug rotors.. i am after front springs but i am not sure, what springs from what car i need. The perches may had been changed in its time so i am just after some info on what springs i should be chasing. I know it will be hard to tell
Those are XT130 struts with XT130 perches.
ok thanks alot mate.. would sw20 mr shock inserts fit into them ?? also do any other springs fit the xt130 strut perch ?
they will physically fit as the strut tube diameter is the same (2")
not so sure about springs though
if you want to keep the stock spring setup (perch) you will need a spacer below the shock insert as its significantly shorter than a stock insert.
alternative is to shorten the stock strut to suit the insert and you can then have the stock perch welded back on and get custom springs made to suit the height and rate you want or when the strut is shortened convert to coilover and choose from a large range of readily available springs![]()
Whats the general size of the spacer needed ?
