Replacement Strut Tops Mk1

Postby michaeln » Tue Aug 20, 2013 9:05 pm

Hi All,
I was after another Standard Mk1 top but as there seem to be none around I have had to look for an alternative and was wondering if there is any issue fitting these Roller Tops to Capri Struts beside the ride height being raised a little? Do I need any sleeves. or is it a straight forward swap??

Cheers, Michael.

Get the ones from GRP4 or Eurospeed. The others are ordinary. The bearings knock around.
You have to machine up some spigots.

I thought it would have been to good to be true just to bolt up, thanks heaps for the info.. checked out GRP4, they sell the same rubber roller top as well as alloy.
