Sierra donor suspension
 
Sorry to bother you all, but does anybody know if the sierra donor car suspension fit the mx5 build at all please ? I want to use them if possible, as I have a possibility of getting some a little cheaper than list price. Any help would be really appreciated !:D

Assuming you mean the shocks and springs, the fronts may fit but the rears are a lot shorter on the MX5 build.

Cheers
Stot

Sierra donor suspension wont fit even a sierra built roadster both sierra and mx5 builds both use coilovers

Mx5 rear coilover slightly shorter than sierra rear but both use the same fronts

Hope that helps

Sorry, I did mean coil overs, it's been one of those days ! Cheers for that. Any idea what the dimensions are so that I know what to order please ?

if it's cheap you could adapt the top rear shock mount to suit.

I can't find the specs just now, but I know I've posted them up more than once before.
