  • Aspire suspension availability

    Folks in the Ottawa, Ontario region could have access to a complete but dying Aspire (has a blown transmission) that has tentatively been offered to me. I have already scavenged 2 Aspires and have no desire to get involved with the purchase of another one. However, should someone else wish to do a suspension swap, or maybe get their hands on a roller valve B3, contact me at vaningen@sympatico.ca.

    As well I can also arrange to have the suspension removed via hoist/air tools and torches and then deal with getting rid of a 'limb-less' wreck. Lying on your back in a cold JY with only hand tools and a pry bar for spinning ball joints, stiff control arms, frozen/seized shock bolts and body bolts is nobody's idea of fun. And my torch-guy can make short work of superfluous parts and stubborn bolts.

    Aspires and Festys are scarce as hen's teeth in this neck of the woods, by the way.

      FestYboy: Discs/drums, brakes are generally inherent with a complete suspension are they not?

        well not so much in the fromt, but it's implied with the rear axle.

        as far a suspention goes though, that's JUST the parts that support and control the WEIGHT of the vehicle. so in your case it would just be the 4 struts (spring and shock assemblies). a brake swap implies the rear axle with drums and front knuckle assemblies (no suspention parts)
