Question gsl to gsl-se suspension swap?

would front and rear shocks and springs from an 85 gsl fit on an 84 gsl-se? how about front camber plates? what about a strut tower brace? im talking like a straight swap, no welding or drilling or cutting.

I don't know about the rear, But I do know the front struts are different. I have a brand new pair of Koni adjustables that are for a GSL, and they are too long for my GSL-SE. Know anyboudy that wants a set? E-mail me at 1984rx7@bellsouth.net.

Really?

All '81-85 struts cartridges should be the same.

i was pretty sure the shocks and springs were the same, at least thats what it looks like in the haynes and thats the way racing beat seems to market their products. so i would assume that camber plates would fit all 81-85s, but would there be problems fitting a strut brace from a gsl to a gslse? with the fi instead of a carb is there problems with it fitting?
