    S2 front struts and springs required? maybe....

    I must try to get my 1990 CQ20v back on the road. I am half way through converting to 5 stud hubs front and rear using s2 hubs and carriers. I have had a big problem with the fronts and they don't fit well. I filed the hole in O/S the leg and now have huge negative camber. I have not checked if ther is a problem with 12 and 14mm holes in the leg.

    Anyway I was thinking about getting ABY front springs ( stiffer than 7A) and legs.

    Anyone have any for sale? sometime in the next couple of months.

    comments please.

    I will check the bits on my car and post the hole size

    will the CQ shocks fit? 22k from new so not worn out

    Pretty sure all S2 legs use 14mm bolts mate
    CQ legs are 52mm dia, and S2 are 55mm AFAIK, so CQ shocks won't fit S2 legs.

    Whats the fitting problem with them?
    You can just drill out the leg holes to 14mm and use the S2 hub carriers and 14mm bolts AFAIK

    I'm planning on doing the same to my CQ when I can find a set of S2 hubs & carriers.

      Measured the mounting bolts on the s2 front hub carriers and they are 12mm. The CQ20v legs are 12mm as well but the holes do not match up?

      Thanks for the offers of front springs could do with some 3b (12mm) front struts if anyone has some at a reasonable price.
