Corona Front Springs

Have a 1977 Corona 2DR Hardtop, I'd like to know if I could swap front suspension parts from another model Corona or Celica? What year could I use to interchange parts if any.


Thanks

I can get my hands on Celica parts rather easily than Corona parts. Just in case I need too.

My cousin have a 79 Celica that we're going to change the front to coilovers and I wnated to find out if I could use his.


Thanks

the celica springs might fit, but its a whole different setup so they might be totally different, never tried celi springs in my wagon, but thats a idea right there.



i used some hilux springs, lil heavier spring rate then the stock corona ones.

try to find a ford courier/ mazda early 80's truck. the springs re the same size diameter but more beefier(thicker coils). that's if you have the a-arm set-up not the mcpherson. I have a 78 rt105 4 door sedan and that is what I used to upgrade my springs.
