Hi All,

I am dying to get my hands on some front struts for a mk1. I cant seem to find one anywhere and if I cant get some in the next few weeks Ill have to fully strip my 4 door donor car which came with so much spares I was hoping to keep as a run about.

I am happy to trade cash for them or anything else mk1 related which I seem to have aquired (which is stacks...ie I got around 10 rear tail light assemblies etc)

Alternatively, do mk2 struts bolt right in easily?

Cheers

Damo

so do you need the inserts or complete struts?

mk2 are very different

I need as much front suspension components as I can get my hands on.

Before I send a shopping list to Geoff in the next couple of weeks I want to see what I can scrounge up first.

But in answer to your q, yes the full struts.

Cheers

Damo, are a member of the Cortina List here in the US? I'm sure if you post what you are looking for, someone will have them. Here is the link.
