    Default AE95 4wd Corolla front shock absorbers

    What vehicle does the AE95 Corolla 4wd share its front shock absorbers with?

    I have located the rears on the Monroe website and found the possible donor vehicles at the wreckers but I am stuggling with the fronts.

    I don't know your budget.... but after painstaking research, I found Bilstein actually made dampers SPECIFICALLY for the AE95...






    ... and I LOVE them
    Information is POWER... learn the facts!!

    The car cost $350 to buy originally and it used to haul tools around between sites. As we have be towing a trailer and the shocks are shot we just want to go to a wreckers and find a set (shocks and springs) that someone has fitted to their car prior to crashing it.

    That's why I wanted to know what the AE95 shares its front shock absorbers with.

    Can't say for sure but the front ends of AE92 seca's have a lot of compatible parts, for example the bonnet & side panels can be changed over & some models have the same 4afe engine..

    So if you're just looking for something from the wreckers, I'd get a measuring tape & take some digital photos of what you've got .. take your camera & measuring tape down the wreckers with you & have a look at a few AE92's

    OR

    try & find an AE95 that's already in a wrecking yard.

    Here.. Check this..:

    Good luck!
