Xantia rear suspension strut compatibility

Post by Kevin B »

Hello fellow BX'ers.

I am having some trouble finding a couple of good rear suspension struts for a BX Estate, due to all the ones I have found so far, showing signs of advanced corrosion on the aluminium casting.

I am thinking if a Xantia strut would work, and has anyone had any experience of this?? The only problem I forsee is the boss which the hydraulic pipe screws into would require reducing in diameter.

I note there are different strut part numbers for BX hatchback and Estate, what Xantia model would be the most compatible with a BX Estate.

Thanks in anticipation of your thoughts.
