TA60/TA62 Carina; what fits?

[Rascal21]

Well, AE86 rear shocks/coilovers should have the same mounting points, you can also get GAZ 32 way adjustable Escort MK2 rear coilovers and bolt them in, and as has been mentioned, AE86 front struts and LCA`s, P/S steering arms, T3 Steering arms, Hey-Man steering arms, or shorten the OEM ones, whatever you want.

AE86 Camber plates (Cusco etc) probably too, if not then just grind, drill etc make it fit and get her done.

AE86 Zenki LSD (Shorten halfshafts 6mm each), AE86 rear brakes if you modify dust covers with new bolt pattern and if that wont work then cut brake bracket from AE86 dust cover, weld it to the TA60 drum dust cover.

AE86 4A-GE if you use AE86 bellhousing, clutch, clutch fork, TA40/AE86 slave cyl, build your own engine mounts (easy).

AE86 MOMO/NARDI etc steering hubs.


Another good mod is changing the driveshaft carrier unit, it will stop driveshaft from floffing about like a fox baiter in there, and the rear wheels to spin a bit more

On my TA40 wagon I easily fitted AE86 Revolver coilover struts and camber plates, only had to drill a new hole for inner bolt for the camber plates and big washer, brake calipers were the other way around so simply swapped struts from each side, voilà.
Easier bolt-on job than changing stuck tie-rods from those pesky allignment sleeves
