Heres a list of what suspension parts from AE86 will work on 2nd gen Celicas.

- sway bars
- springs
- shocks(may require spacers)
- RCA's (roll center adjuster) or NCRCA's (negative camber roll center adjuster)
- tension rods
- 4 links ( would have to drill out the bolt holes 2mm wider or if T3 is making it, have gabe make'em with the right ends that use 19mm bolts)
- camber plates (BUT, would have to widen one hole on each side of the strut tower, the most inner hole) Cusco actually makes camber plates for 2nd gens, but you have have to order it from a shop that can get cusco and it'll take a while since no ones gonna have those in stock.

and if anyone can post a list of what off an AE86 can fit a 1st gen that would be nice! a friend of mine that works at Megan Racing wants to know what other cars that it'll work on.

Before I order the springs, can anyone else verify that these springs are the same? Most of the ebay pictures do not look the same, but I think that's because they all use the same stock photo. Any help?

From all references I've checked (an hour of internet searching), and also checking with RockAuto, Napa, Oreilly and Autozone, the rear springs are not the same.

The Celica uses MOOG p/n 2205. Corolla uses MOOG 2203.
AC Delco 45H2049 45H2048

All seem to have this one-number offset and the pictures are different.

AE86 Ball joints will work in RA21 control arms.
AE86 Master Cylinder bolts to RA21 Brake booster.
AE86 rear springs will not work on RA21 axle.
AE86 Panhard bar will not fit.
AE86 struts will bolt in if RA21 top hats are used OR strut tower bolt holes are reworked.
AE86 Crossmember will not fit (4AGE swap requires RA21 motor mount rework)
AE86 Rack & Pinion is too wide, will result in bumpsteer. AE82 Rack is the perfect width but require AE86 tie rods.
AE86 Steering knuckles will fit.
AE86 brake calipers will not fit RA21 struts (swap the whole strut to get the brakes.
AE86 rear axle will not fit unless the 4link mounts are moved.
Thats all I can remember at the moment.

AE86 front strut assembly bolts right in however since the steering linkage is behind the suspension instead of in front, the ae86 will not work. They might work with an RCA for example.

AE86 rear springs fit nicely onto my 75 rear axle.
