Ae92 shocks to fit Ae85 struts

Postby allsecretlove777 » Thu Oct 25, 2007 3:25 pm

Hi,
After some shorter stroke shocks to fit short springs for my front struts. Looking through the George stocks KYB catalogue and came across these. There are a few different types of AE92 shocks. Just wondering if they are the right model. Im pretty sure its the GT model I need? :?

Model: (AE92) 1600 GTi
Year: 5.87-92
Part No front shocks: 365064

thank you for your suggestions! :o

I know they fit ae92 because they are ae92 shocks, but will they fit ae85/ae86 struts?

Also I will be using a spacer to compensate for the body length difference
