Struts on a '91 900??? All my pre '93 900's were double wish bone w/shocks
in front and solid axle w/shocks in rear. Am I missing something?? If you
have a standard "old" 900 and want a tighter handleing vehicle. Put KYB
shocks on it and replace the springs with junkyard SPG units. It takes an
afternoon. Now go to an alignment shop and have them take out ALL the
camber (0 degrees) and most of the toe in. It'll stick till your tires let
go and respond like a Lotus.......well sorta. Just remember that when the
tires do let go you'll have a major handfull of problems. Best to practice
a bit on a track or parking lot. It's a joy at less than 10/10ths. Keep
the receipt for the KYB shocks. You'll be needing it, especially if you
drive the car in cold weather.
