TRUSTY MUSTY Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Just picked up a beautiful 79 brat, but I'm wanting to replace the struts. I've poked around a little but can't seem to find any part numbers. Anyone have any recommendations? Has anyone used the KYB GR-2/EXCEL-G SHOCK ABSORBER? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spicypeanut Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Please let us know what you find. I would also like to know this. Every-time I go to the store they tell me I will need to bring them the part so they can order based off of measurements because the brat isn't in the catalog.

TRUSTY MUSTY Posted February 20, 2015 Author Share Posted February 20, 2015 Will do spicypeanut. I've seen (drooled on) your build thread so anything I can do! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUBARU3 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 You can use the struts from any 76-79 2WD Subaru car too. You just lost the adjustability that came with the 4WD struts. But that was really worthless anyway. You do need to switch to the 2WD strut assembly in order to use the 2WD cartridges. It opens up another option. They bolt right in exactly the same. 2WD Gabriel G46658 or G44707 KYB #s 20002 KC2024 4WD Gabriel G46671 or G 44730 Todd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
