Hi,
The SS has a different spec suspension named FE2. The struts are heavier and the springs are stiffer and and lower. The torsion bar is also larger dia cos of the 5L etc
The brakes are a bigger diameter as well. Hardly worth the candle to start swapping out. Best to emphasise to the buyer of your old car the work done - get a better price and if required do the SS up as well.
