i just want to confirm if the CE2 lancer and FTO rear springs are interchangeable..
i checked whiteline and its got the same code but just want to make sure it is
the front springs are diff codes so im assuming they are not interchangeable

from what i know.. the struct braces are the same, so that means the bolts are in the same position. so i guess the springs and what not would be interchangeable.
...don't worry, someone else (hopefully someone that's not as drunk as me and/or knows better) will be along shortly to confmr or to tell me that i'm a boob shortly. lol

from memory i think you'll find later model lancer springs will fit FTO.
however in doing so the spring rates will be messed up.
but research it more, i put my old springs in a post 96 lancer for a mate and they fit but i couldnt comment on the ride or handling after

Rear springs are the same as the CJ4 Mirage, front are not interchangeable that I know of.

When I ordered my D2's the salesman (I also used his garage and tools to install them) ordered Lancer rears (don't know the model), so chances are, the rear ends are near enough to identical...
