SPAX 28-stage adjustable front strut inserts for the Ford Mk2 Cortina using the later Series 2 solid-rubber type top mounting and smaller damper spindle arrangement.
The TAG1178 is a dry cartridge insert which replaces the original wet/oil-filled damper inside the Cortina strut casing, giving a modern sealed adjustable damper while retaining the original Ford strut.
