MA61 celica supra front struts on AE86,best way?

[Soarer T]

got a pair front stucts of celica supra. trying to make a coilover and put it on the AE86.

i had took both two different struts (celica and 86) out compared them. the knuckle arm is the main problem . celica one is longer and the hole for the ball joint is bigger than 86 one. the length is longer as well.
also, the holes for caster arm is different. the problem is celica strut wont fit straight to 86 knuckle arm. one bolt match, but the other one has 3mm differ.

i had took the knuckle to some engineering shop and they told me its hard to redrill it because there not much "meat". then i was thinking to make a CRA, the bottom side match the 86 knuckle arm, the upper side to the celide strut, but it would be too big and do not know if there gona any problem happen when go through the cert.

just wondering if anyone had done this convertion before, or any ideas would be great. cheers.

This is what you need to make the lower arm/strut bolt together happily

Yeah what he said

$160 would take em away.

RCAs, cap screws, steering arms.

Definitely certable, some other guys have had car certed with this setup.

All bought brand new, have only been test fitted to my car, that's it.
