Does installing standard replacement Stanza inserts like Monroe, Pedders ect. Give you the ability to shorten the strut tube.

Or do you need to source shorter inserts?

And what holds these inserts into the strut tube?

Do they have a bolt that goes into the bottom like other inserts I have used on Toyota's

Cheers

Good luck with it Carps.

Maybe I should ask for help in finding me a XP Falcon Wagon. But I dont think I will get the same response.

Where are you located

Interested in the front inserts, but postage to WA 6208 may be the killer

Would like to shorten the strut tube, would it be possible with the stanza strut inserts?

Because the adjustable strut tops basically shorten the shock travel by 30 mm.

Thanks coxsteve

Will try KYB as just got a set of rear shocks from them, but are yet to install them.

Lumley are good to deal with, a member on this site put me onto them. They are underwritten by West Farmers Insurance.

This has been discussed a bit lately, but I an after some advice on what inserts work well with this setup.

I have The stanza front suspension in my 1200 with a CA conversion. I am running Stanza Struts, un shortened with SSS Stanza Springs. I have a heavy duty sway bar fitted also.

The present ride height of the vehicle is good, but the dampening qualities of the front end leave a bit to be desired.

I am running 14 inch rims with 185/60 rubber. The spring perch is only just above the tyre, so moving it further down the strut is not an option.

The struts are original, with the original oil, will putting in a replacement Stanza replacement cartridge (Pedders 8722 Comfort Gas Cartridge) net possitive gains, or is there any thing else worth considering.

Cheers

Im interested on some advice with this setup - hilux 4 pot (s12+8 caliper) and U12 pintara discs. (R31 Rear)

I have done this in my CA Coupe and under hard braking it locks the front right and under firm braking it pulls left.

Im using a 180B master and booster, I removed the 180B poportining valve assy that I had when I had stanza drum brakes rear and stanza disc front. I replaced the poportioning valve for one off of a Ford Laser and I belive this to be causing the problem.

I ran the s12 calipers with the stanza drum rear end and the 180B poportioning valve and the car pulled up straight, but you locked the rears under hard braking.

I curious to know how you guys have the master configured? I spoke to Maddat and they said they dont use a poportioning valve. Just straight from the master into a y splitter and then to the brakes.

Any thoughts?

And sorry for getting off track in your thread

Looking good carps, I know what you mean about putting diff in and out by yourself.
