Just a bit of info for those that don't already know:
Ford Corsair/Nissan Pintara 89/93 CA20/KA24 Front wheel drive Sedan, REAR shock inserts are same as 1200/120Y Fronts. I discovered this today when the rear shocks for my son's Corsair arrived. Ebay 4 sets left Buy now $44 incl post from Ultracheap Autos Kempsey. AC Delco Gas.
I don't know how to update Wiki so if anyone wants to it may be helpfull.
Still very lonely without Betty have to spend more time with my family

Sounds good but I wander how soft they are compared to front shocks.
If they are too soft they may cause all sorts of horrible handling issues.

Gas shocks off a corsair, they would bound and then send you too the moon on the rebound.

Gas shocks are good for beating up mates, holding up tailgates and wait can't think of anything else... they definitely don't belong on a 1200.

Better off rebuilding the orig wet leg setup. I did this with m/cycle fork oil and seals back in the day before I had a good job and they came up trumps.

Oil dampers are where its at. Tokico or koni, or Kyb oil/gas assist.
