Does it use the full Cortina front setup? It shouldn't need any reinforcing if you are just replacing the separate coil and damper with a
combined unit. The load in a kit will be less than it was originally taking unless you have done something drastic to increase the weight of your car.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
