k3twent Posted June 21, 2020 Report Share Posted June 21, 2020 Hi Everyone, I have just purchased a KE20 to restore and this is my first ever post. My front struts are leaking. Is it possible to buy inserts for these for i have to get them rebuilt. It has standard suspension and want to keep it this way. What sort of costs am I looking at? Any advice much appreciated.

wenisman Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 (edited) hey k3twent, welcome you can generally buy the inserts, check rockauto.com. you can also buy the inserts from monroe (the gt gas series from memory works), kyb also do direct factory replacements something like this search will help, obviously search for the year and style of your car as this search is for my car: https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/toyota,1974,corolla,1.2l+l4,1367614,suspension,strut,7584 Edited June 23, 2020 by wenisman add a welcome message Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wenisman Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 i just purchased some kyb for my ke26 wagon and they we $36 per shock and the shipping was about $30 all in AUD. but looking at the monroe website, you can find the struts that should fit your car. if you are in australia then monroe list the 805014MM https://www.monroe.com.au/trade-corner/catalogue-search.html?cat_make=TOYOTA&cat_model=Corolla&cat_year=1974&search_type=make_model_year&form_used=sidebar doing a little google you can pick them up from $100-$160. the $160 was from supercheapauto if that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kecorey55 Posted December 25, 2021 Report Share Posted December 25, 2021 How did you go with this? I just bought some Monroe 805014mm strut inserts for my ke55 and it seems they’re to long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
