Hey guys, I’m trying to change the suspension on a budget and was wondering if the suspensions between a 900 and 9000 were interchangeable? What years if any would work with an 86?
Cheers.

There's not much in the suspension that's interchangeable between the 2. Maybe some brake parts? They are completely different cars.

C900 suspension parts are cheaper than 9000 parts, so I'd stick with what fits.

Like said above, the 900 and 9000 do not share any suspension parts, but the suspension of the 900 remained essentially the same from '79-'93. Springs and shocks are interchangeable across all years, but brake calipers, halfshafts, hubs, and the rear axle changed a few times. For parts other than springs and shocks you will want to be looking from '81-'87.

What specifically are you trying to track down?
