coilovers

[Belly93]

would these fit a k11 with slight modification? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BLUE-LINE...CarParts_SM&hash=item1e6a5e25e1#ht_728wt_1037

Yes

Cheers the rears too?

The corsa B rear shocks fit but need the bottom bush trimming down (do a search, been covered 4 millions times)

The corsa rear springs wont fit.

Looking at that the rears springs round the shocks which is why I asked if they fit and I'll have a look cheers

I was looking at exactly the same kit you are, i have them in my watch list.... im not 100% sure the rear coilovers will fit. Im sure they will be too wide and hit the inner arch.

To be honest even if they didnt fit it wouldnt take too much effort to " make" them fit.

Quite alot of strut tower modification needed and strengthening.
Alot of hassle.

Back in the day when i used to mess around with Vauxhall novas we used to make the rear coilovers fit.

Used to weld extra plates to the bottom shock mount and cut out and turret the rear arches. 2/3 hours welding and they would fit fine.

I ran a full set of Avo coilovers on the nova for 3 years when everyone said the bottom shock mount on the rear wasnt strong enough to take a coilover. I never had a problem.

Thanks guys

 

[Rob]

For the money it would be worth buying them and giving it a go!

 

[Belly93]

Soon as the cash allows thanks for the advise

Bear in mind it says "picture for illustration purposes only " probably the usual coil aside kit

 

[Belly93]
