Different yrs=Different suspension?
I was looking for spring options on my SVX, and since I want to get new struts in about a week, I figured I'd change the springs while I'm at it. I see that Eibach makes springs for the SVX, but only if it was made in 1997. Is this accurate? Do I really have no spring options? I've got a 92 btw.

As far as I know, they all have the same suspension.

Today I just put an entire 97 subframe into a 92... There are no differences

Hmm...I guess I'll buy strut mounts too and test mount everything first. Lol Tom, you're always doing some damn unusual and time consuming work on your car.

Yea, I wanna know two. I figure metal is metal, especially when it's that thick. Or did you have rust up the ass on your old ones? I wanna know more, cause when I graduate, I'm not buying a new car, I'm building an SVX (hopefully this one) and raping every other car I come across. Anything in the suspension department should be archived, since any small discovery in the SVX is rare and hard to come by, and will forever remain lost, waiting to be rediscovered, but by then we'll all be driving cars that run on air. So...yea...why'd you do it.

Instead of removing the 97 rear struts,axles,hubs,mounts, and differential... I said F'it, it will be easier to swap the whole subframes...and I was right

Actually, I went to Autozone today to see the product numbers of the 92 and 97 SVXs, and one ends with 3 and the other 8. I guess they are different, but I also guess that means that if I order 97 struts, I should be fine, right? Also, how are Gabreil struts compared to the OE? (silla or something) For all four, it's going to cost $580. Damn the lack of aftermarket for this car.
