Hey Guys,

massive ask for everyone but here goes:

if anyone has or knows of some pics that show the front suspension (be it assembled of individual parts) could you please link me or post them here?

im trying to work out a little project that would make our jdm vr4s a bit more like your usdm galants ;)


points of concern:

LCA's
LCA mount points and dimensions
swaybar mounts


Cheers,

Paulie


(for anyone who helps ill send them a whole LHD converted 8g vr4...hahaha ok not really :P )

all I got is the front strut vs the coilover

I don't have any pictures of the real thing, but I'll try to take a lot of pics when possible.
For now, here are the diagrams from the Front Suspension portion of the FSM. In fact, if you want the Front Suspension part of the Factory Service Manual (33A), just let me know and I will upload it.

ahh thanks guys, appreciate that.

silly question, but is the front shocks/springs from an eclipse or from a lancer/mirage? more importantly, could i use an evo front coilover?

i think i recall people using eclipse springs...but i cant remember.


ill do some searching in the meantime

Its the eclipse front shocks and springs that we use, but the USDM G's share the platform with the 3g eclipse, the world spec G's share it with the 2g eclipses. So i could not tell you if a evo coilover works or not.
