    Default what will fit ?

    Will the header, steering rack, or the rear shocks off an A1 fit an A2?

    No, maybe, but I don't know enough about A2's to say, and I don't think so.

    Header: No. Different engine angle

    Steering Rack: Maybe. They don't fail that often. why change it?

    Rear shocks: Should

    I have only held a rear shock from a rabbit once, and if I remember correctly it was much shorter. The mount in the car is much lower than it is in an A2 if I remember correctly.

    Tried Koni?

    Headder: No

    Steering rack: No A1 mounts to the body, A2 mounts to the subframe

    Shocks: Never tryed, I be worried about the valving?!?

    BSI Racing has a great Koni set up for the A2, It has taken me to many wins and a Championship this year.

    No on header, no on rack, and no on struts. Sorry, I'm in the same boat.
