1981 SRV 540 skid swap.

[97srxXT]

Have an 81 srv that the suspension is seized up or the shocks are blown out. It sits on the ground like a low rider. Looking for a newer skid or better skid that will bolt in or with minimal modifications. Looks like the Phazer skid up to 1990 is the same 116 track, But not sure if there is a better option available.

Thanks,
Nick

Any of the original Pro-Action Rear Suspension's would be an upgrade.
