The old suspension is nothing at all - Toyota Sprinter Trueno, 1.6 L, 1987

Maybe it was worth starting with automotive bodywork, but you get very tired to constantly putty and weld on new iron, and even wait until everything dries out as it should, in short, time is running out, be healthy, so the first thing to do is take up the suspension.

I made a call to a friend:
- so and so, Lech help me out
, I need a suspension on AE92 - I'll ask my teammates on the forum.
- so what do they say
- one guy, in Chelyabinsk, crashed his Truen 111 and sells it for spare parts, but he may not have a superstra suspension on your body, he gives it for 15 rubles.
- it's worth the risk, and the tubers say something about this
- no, no one has done this yet, only guesses and assumptions.

And now in a week we are in Chelyabinsk. We met with Vanya (my first acquaintance is now in this city) looked into his garage, and there he had the whole car laid out on the shelves. Imagine taking it all apart to a bolt. Well, to heap he took from him the entire hydraulic booster assembly, an intermediate roller and an air conditioner.

During installation, of course, I had to conjure up, who is interested ask. But in the end, only a longitudinal subframe, a front stabilizer and two regular holes in the body remained of the old suspension, along which the entire suspension was centered, the rear subframe remained. And then you will probably ask me a question: "Hey dear, why do you need all this?"

First, the car has become much lower.
Secondly, the control is much sharper and clearer, which struck me most of all, the turning radius has decreased significantly, turns almost at a right angle.
And thirdly, the state of the old suspension was very deplorable (like the whole car), so it was useless to revive it.

To the pile, the new calipers were painted dark green, the rails were oiled and new pads were installed.
