Well, unless someone convinces me not to, I think I am going to get either the Prothane or Energy Suspension kit and use the oem sleeves with a spacer. I think this may be an inexpensive route. Any preference or reasons to choose one of these products over the other? I have used Energy Suspension pr...

I need to replace the large bushings on the lower control arms. This is on a 2WD '90 Legacy. I have searched for post on this topic and have read quite a few. From what I have read, removing the old bushing is somewhat of a chore, but it's the pressing the new bushing in thats difficult. I have used...

Thanks for response, Josh. Its good to know that I should be able to do a direct swap with no other modifications. What would I see/experience if the computer did think the tranny was manual? I am swapping out the harnesses. To satisfy my curiosity, do you think the '90 ecu would learn to run the re...

It has been said that the Sti '04 wrx rear strut mount will fit with '90 legacy with a little hole modification. Does this mean that any aftermarket mount for '04 wrx will fit the '90 leg...

I have an 1990 Legacy wagon FWD that needs a new rear strut mount(tapered spring type). I didn't think that was going to be a problem. I checked several aftermarket sites, all carry front mounts, no rears. Does any one know why? I did find an oem mount on a subaru parts site. I kept searching here a...
