Hello all,
New to the group, hoping I can learn and share information on vehicle builds, swaps, etc.
My new project is a 1993 Toyota Carina, JDM, ST195, which basically is an Alltrac Celica with 4drs. Hence I to have the dreaded rear strut acquisition issues.
I read the DIY on modifying the tops of other type of struts to work with these applications using various KYB or Tokico strut inserts and have a quick question regarding the modification.
If I were to cut the top of the shock at the weld line and thread the inner top to accept the hex head threaded cap, will I have enough height for a strut to be secured in the shock? Is clearance the purpose for welding the top threaded portion of a separate donor shock? Thanks in advance for reply!
