Re: WTB: good stock springs, shocks, and struts for legacy w

I believe he would probably want new springs too since he has springs that have been chopped... And I don't think he would want to put wrx springs on there cuz that would still be lower than stock. U gotta listen to what he wants man instead of just tryin to sell ur product. But he could go to the j...

The funny thing is, I dint have any problems with my other one other than it failed all the tests at autozone when they tested...

I have a 90 L n/a awd with a bade tierod on the passengers side and the powersteering rack leaks out of the boot in a little stream when i turn my wheels all the way to the drivers side, so I've decided it's time to buy a good one instead of just buying powersteering fluid. I was wondering what rack...

Best place to buy struts?

I want to buy some 98 outback struts for my 90 wagon. I haven't been able to realy find much except for eBay. I want to buy the strut and spring already assembled. Does anyone know where some good places to get struts. Or should I just go to napa and get them?

Just unbolting it from the bottom at the knuckle. I've never dealt with struts before, but I'm pretty sure I won't need one Because they're one unit unless I'm gonna take my strut apart. I know this was a dumb question but I just wanted to be safe..
