    Default Would some FE3 G8 GXP struts and shocks fit a 2009 G8 GT?

    I'm looking to replace the original shocks and struts on my G8 GT. I went to my local chevy dealer to get a price on OEM struts and shocks. They are asking arm and leg for struts and shocks. I Found some Pontiac G8 GXP FE3 Strut Package on Pace Performance. I was wondering if they would fit on my G8 GT?

    Yes, many folks have done this upgrade instead of aftermarket suspension parts.

    Put strut mounts (poly if you want them to last) and bearings in at the same time. The bushings are probably already collapsed and the bearings will fall apart when you start taking bits apart.
