I have recently bought a tickford XR sports suspension kit to fit my Au2 S pak.
Now, I have rang the local Ford dealer's spare parts this morning, and they tell the kit I bought was fitted as factory standard on the Au2 S pak. He claimed to match up the part numbers for XR parts with the ones Ford fitted to AU S paks. I was under the impression, the S pak at best was only fitted with Tickford shockers. It would appear I have bought a kit that's already fitted to my car. My Au2 certainly doesn't appear to be lowered to the same level as the XR series were. I was hoping to use the kit to lower my car! |

Oh well, you should have checked first. S pak came with same suspension setup as XR6 HP - around 25 to 30mm lower than standard forte.
