94 XR2 Rear Struts
« on: February 13, 2003, 11:46:00 AM »
Let me share today's experience with you. Went to have lowering springs installed as well as new front/rear strut mounts & front/rear struts. Eveything worked except for the rear struts. It turns out (after a phone call to MCCM) that the 94  capri xr2 has a choice of 3 different struts for the rear (non-turbo, turbo w/o sport suspension & turbo w/sport suspension.) Needless to say I had to leave the originals on and one of them is shot. Now if anyone knows how where I can locate some rear struts or a different method of searching (mazda 323, etc.) please let me know.

Thanx.

In all honesty, I didn't look anywhere. I had the wheel and tire shop that was doing the work order the parts for me. Now I have been able to track some OEM Struts down and have ordered them. Once they get here, I will be able to tell if they are the ones that I need. I got the part number from a local Mercury dealer.
