Hey guys,

Busted my right front strut on the weekend and was chasing one up from the wreckers. Does anybody know if the 85 brumby and 82 wagon use the same strut? i saw one in the 82 wagon but at the top of it it had a round rubber mould which stuck past the top of the strut tower whereas on the brumby its flush across the top. Are these interchangable or not?? Thanking you in advavance RubiSubi.

Was an interesting drive home!

Got hold of a strut during the week and put it in sat morning, quite easy really only 4 bolts and it was out. When i went to lower it down i noticed the left side was busted as well dam it, who knows how long it was like that for. All good now, matching struts is better anyway and its a heap smoother ride. Think the last springs were way too stiff.
