Front Shock Absorber Top Mount

by RodOGW » Mon Apr 12, 2010 10:16 am

Hello - can anyone tell me for sure if the front shock absorber top mounts are the same throughout the the 2.0 litre range - C20NE, C20XE and X20XEV.
On Fleabay they are selling one size fits all but I have been advised that the X20XEV is different to the C20NE (but fits the Cav fitted with C20NE).
It's just I want to order them up ASAP to be ready as part of a suspension overhaul next weekend.

Part 22 on your drawing. On ebay they are sold as all the same but some suppliers are saying for Calibra 8V I need item ref no 90268464 as opposed to the x20xev part which is 90289421. I keep googling numbers and coming back to where I started.

just checked and there is part number 90268464 listed for the C20NE/C20XE/ C20LET

The same part Number is also used on the X20XEV -S1000234 to R9999999- Part number 90289421 is used -S1000235 to S9000001

the C25XE and X25XE is part number 90468448 though it says NLS but gives no other number


but it is a tad out of date

Edit: note to self, read and re-read whole thread before posting what people already know :alright:

Am ordering parts myself at the moment and kind of 'skip read' the thread....
I used to own this Calibra...
I now own this one.

That was where I was ordering mine from MarkV6 - confusing.com. however - stripped out everything yesterday and top mounts are the same throughout - I was only ordering up spares incase the existing appeared to be rotten. But as is always the case they were in perfect condition - at least I have spares now.
Thanks everyone who's helped.
