WTD 72 super front struts
I am hoping to lower the front of the super like this.
http://forums.aussieveedubbers.com/viewtopic.php?tid=48798
But I don’t want to wreck the current struts or be off the road too long.
If you have some front Struts that will suit, let me know.

I believe they are 3 bolt, and I will be attempting to lower my self. Thats why I didnt want to hack into the original.
I will check the originals and repost tomorrow.

The struts are 3 bolt.
Thanks for the link Rose but this is just a little project I wanted to do in my spare time. I have a very well equiped machine shop so the mods
should be very easy, and cost not much more then a second hand set of struts and the bits to recondition them.
If anybody can help me out.

Hi Barry
The price is OK but they still use the stock OD springs, so your still limited with wheel choice. I would rather put the money towards some narrow
struts.
