Do 2001 GT suspension parts fit on an 88 GT?

Kamaro Killer · 07-02-2002, 03:19 PM

I need to buy new shocks and springs. I noticed this on E-bay. If I buy this, will they fit on my 88 GT? Please let me know, thanks!

I think the springs will work but I'm not sure about the struts and shocks.

Ok, I know the saying, if it's too good to be true, it probably is, but if these fit, I could save myself some money. Anyone??? Thanks!

I would think they would fit, but they are very cheap, so why not buy them and if they dont fit, then sell them and make a little money.

The struts and shocks will also work just fine. I think the springs may cause your car to sit higher, but I'm not positive about that (the SN-95's and later sit higher than the fox bodies as far as I can tell!). I would verify the spring rates so you know what you are getting, but for the low $, what the heck! Good luck!
