Are your struts rooted, or just the inserts? Or do you have none at all?

Id say an 85 laurel would be closer to 910 or r30 dont you think?
Single pot caliper with vented disc?

85 is C32.
It'd be very like the R31 IIRC.

I had a set of c32 struts which i just pulled inderts out of and put new heavier oil in them and it worked mint, they're basically the same as r31 struts

Pulling them apart and cleaning all the crap off then refilling them with ISO 46 hydraulic oil works mint if you're a poor dirty bogan like most Mastertonians.
