Default Part Interchangeability (96 to 00-02)

I am thinking about getting a 00-02 WS6... and if i am... I was wondering if the parts I have on my car I can swap out to my new 00-02 car.

The Koni 4/4 and strano spring setup, the UMI adj t/a and relocation xmember, the UMI adj PHB, and the GMMG... anyone have any info??? Thanks

GMMG and Konis should be interchangeable for sure.

The UMI Adjustable Torque Arm & Panhard Bar will interchange.

The floor pan on '93-'97 & '98-'02 were slightly different, so the relocation mount may not be the same. I know the automatic transmission mounts are different between the two. If you're using the "trans-mount" torque arm with the relocation bracket, then your bracket probably mounts in place of the factory transmission mount. If that's the case, then you might wanna contact UMI to be 100% sure.

Yes this is correct. If it is a torque arm relocation kit they are designed specifically for 93-97 and 98-02 due to a change in the vehicle floor. If it is one of our short tunnel mounted arms they work on all years.

Hope that helps!

Yes correct, you would now need a 98-02 Torque arm relocation kit.

Hope that helps!
