Research!!!

[RCKSTR]

After doing researce I've found out that 04 struts fit a 91 Legacy :) So now I'm not selling my wrx struts & Tein type-S lowering springs :D They will be going in the car pretty soon depending on how the ride is, wait and see!

With the stuff I've found it sounds like 04-07 impreza wrx struts & 04 sti struts fit the 90-91 Legacy and the 02-03 wrx struts fit the 92-94 Legacys :up:

I'll keep everyone updated on the progress...

I'm +1'ing this question. Cause I was under the impresion the top hats needed swapping in the rear between all sub GDB cars and any post GDA cars but GDA stuff will bolt to all older stuff front and rear. Excluding of course the 05+ STi it's self where the lower hub mounts are different and the STi tophats in the front were different or maybe all GDB's were different top hats.

yep, I found this info at legacycentral.org and that site so far is the most help for my quest to build this legacy.

multiple people have said they've done it without swap'n anything so I'm taking their word for it :up:

I've been a member at LCO for a long time. I'd take their word for it. :D

Seeing how there is soo much knowlege in here Im going to thread jack and ask:
Will 02 wrx struts and springs fit an 04 legacy outback sedan?

[subaru_crazy]

i would say fronts yes and rear is deffently a no.

^^bummer, I wanted to drop the leggy for the summer.

Do XT and first gen Legacy's share the same suspension? Anyone know?

[shtbxr22]

The first gen legacies share impreza stuff for the most part, and since the forester is like a high riding impreza suspension-wise, i'm pretty sure it's a safe bet. research!! ;) I'll bet the most you will run into is the tophat conundrum.
