WTB: Forester Suspension bits for '02 Bugeye Lift

[Legacy RallyGuy]

I'm looking for some Forester Struts and springs, as they'll give me about 5cm lift all the way around. Anyone have a set of low-miles take-offs laying around?

Why? ...NCT results:

Alignment: PASS
Brakes: PASS
Emissions: PASS
Etc: PASS


Strut Test: FAIL

Left... Right...
Front 27 Mm Front 28 Mm "4% Imbalance" (Good to Go!!)
Rear 180 Mm Rear 59 Mm "67% Imbalance" (Well, that Sucks Balls!!)


So instead of just replacing the rears, I was looking at replacing all four struts and hopefully springs as well, since just replacing two require getting an alignment anyway... Going toward the direction of a small lift of 2" (for beefier gravel spec tires later)


Other bits I would like:

Forester
-Sway bar links
-Sway bar mounts
-Forester rear trailing arms and mounts (to center the rear after it's lowered a bit

Yus!
Though, I was never one for redneck urban assault vehicles that's taller than it is wide, I love the Mad Max/Baja 1000 stuff!

I nearly finished building the offroad car back in America with my automatic 2.2L 'Spare parts' Legacy.

Oh and the 5.9L Diesel Dodge Ram 2500 was my roommates truck, he still has it, but I think has bigger tires now.

Intrigued!! So how many miles is on the Fozzy? Because I get paid on the 1st.

edit: also, would you be that attached to the sway bars, just in case there's a geometry difference/diameter difference?

Will check when comes in a tues.

And price would be x4 shocks. Sway bay link. Traling arm etc as your list.

Should be all you need. Once not a major parts will incl all you need

Sounds good, thanks for that. I'm glad Subarus are the Lego of cars and very similar platforms.

Any news on the Fozzy?

Hi Davelegacy,

Thanks,
