[RESOLVED] 2g suspension on a 1g?/

[boostd-spyder96]

i have a 2g suspension kit(spring and shock) and i was wondering if the shocks and spring will bolt right up to a 1g?

Na man. The 1g's have macpherson strut and the 2g's have double wishbone where the shock is actually a concentric dampener. It looks similar to the 1g shock but it won't bolt up at all unless someone found some crazy way to do it. I wouldn't recommend it.

No.

2g's are actually multi-link at all four corners.

Even if you managed to modify the vehicle or the shocks to fit, they wouldn't last. Struts are built buff, designed to take lateral loads. Shocks are flimsy in comparison, only meant to take axial loads.

Neither springs nor shocks will fit or work between the two.
