I read somewhere on here that the xt130 struts bolt straight into ke30, can anyone confirm this?

 

Cheers!

Corona struts

and another one

Click me

Requires RA40 or XT130 steering arms to bolt in. Both use the same ball joint and tie rod ends as a KE30 so they will bolt in and the strut will bolt into that.

second the above also

I found a set without the wishbones, do I need them?

Wishbones ?

If its the castor rods - no, you don't.

If its the lower control arms - no, you don't.

I don't know exactly, the guy at the wreckers called them wishbones so I don't know what his referring to.

Anyone have a picture of a xt130 for some reason I'm getting confused lol

More than likely be refering to the Lower Control arms.

 

ALL that is needed, is the XT130 struts and either XT130 or RA40 (celica) Steering arms.

 

You may run into troubles with the XT130 spring being too large in diameter for the strut tower. You MAY be able to run a KE30 top spring hat and spring.

 

But you need to make a safe decision weather the spring will seat correctly in the XT130 lower spring seat.

 

If thats not a safe option you can either:

 

Remove the XT130 lower spring seat and weld on the KE30 one.

 

Or take your KE30 springs to a spring makers and have them open the last coil or 2 out to XT130 spec.

thanks for the info bro!!
