Title: Leaf springs
Post by: Bioman on April 05, 2008, 10:15:31 PM
Will any other leaf springs fit a XJ ? Saw a Frontera LWB in the scrapyard today with really good springs on.  :wink:

Newer S10s are known around here as the Isuzu Rodeo  :wink:
Not sure the Izuzu TF / Vauxhall Bravo are the same though.
