January 10, 201115 yr comment_494280 Hi All New to world of Rola and already own 2 lol my question is though does an AE86 strut fit KE20 reason I ask is I was offered a set of Coil overs and wondering if they would fit even with mods :blush: there like these Report
January 10, 201115 yr comment_494302 To bolt them in you will need either TE27 steering knuckles sourced from japan or the USA, or grab some ball joint taper adapters from techno toy tuning, fit these over your ball-joint, chuck on an ae86 steering knuckle, the strut will then bolt up, swap over the strut tops to ke20 items and they will bolt in :) http://technotoytuning.com/productdetail.php?p=775 Edited January 10, 201115 yr by Tally Report
January 10, 201115 yr comment_494304 AE86 steering arms for starters. The next thing you'll need to work out is ball joints. Their different, very different. As i've found out (ke2x control arms into a ke30). You'll more then likely find the ae86 bearing plate (part that bolts the top of the strut to the car body) will have to be swapped to the ke20 one. Next thing to do is have a search and see if someones done it. Report

Luckly the bearing plates can be purchased as a blank with camber ajuster and you can drill out the holes accordingly which leaves the ball joints :bash: :lolcry: Report
January 10, 201115 yr Author comment_494325 further to that I'm ganna want different brakes in order to pull up a V8 lol Report
January 10, 201115 yr comment_494329 just put whatever struts you want in then.... better yet just weld them solid. Not like the thing is gonna handle with a V8 in it :rolls: Report
January 10, 201115 yr comment_494341 What Tally said. Make sure if you decide to go the AE86 steering arm route with a spacer to fill out the balljoint pin hole, that you source power steering arms rather than non power arms (non pwr steer arms are significantly longer than KE / TE 2x). I think the bling TTT arms are power steer length. Report
