1988 GT suspension updates (Page 1/1)

Hey Yall,

I'm looking to refresh some worn out suspension on my 1988 GT.

I found some rear hubs and i was wanting to get a new set of rear struts and springs and I was wondering what everyone would recommend.

I know the 88GT suspension is different than the other years but I also know that at least a few parts are interchangeable (Rear hubs)

So i was hoping that someone could point me to some rear struts and springs that would help and refresh my car.

Thanks!

Choices for the 88 are limited...

Why do you need new springs? Another option is to buy one of those coil over kits.

If the rear springs aren't broken, don't replace them...

As rear struts:
Koni rear struts were discontinued for the '88 and many members now either use Monroe or KYB Struts
