...but will they fit a 1990 Legacy sedan AWD ABS? I can't find info on suspension differences (although the spring rate sticky is very useful!).

need new tophats on a 90. they had tapered rear springs. but that's an easy item to pull at the junkyard

What if i just stay with my stock springs? Will the WRX strut fit the bottom of the stock 90 spring? And will everything else really line up?

Thanks.

you only need top mounts for the rear The 2.5RS/gc8 spring strut combo works for sure. Dunno about the wrx though. I know the strut bars have different mounting which means different top mounts, so I dunno how it comes in concact with the strut itself.

According to that link wrx struts and springs will fit in our cars. Kelley was running sti struts from a wrx in his legacy.

OK I bought the struts and springs from a 2002 WRX. Now WHICH rear top mounts do I need for the 1990 legacy sedan? And where should I get them?

THanks to all for your help. This is a good opportunity to really upgrade the car.

If you want to upgrade to stiffer mounts get the STi top mounts for the gc8 impreza. Otherwise just go with any top mounts from 92-94 leg or any gc8. Dunno about other subarus if they'll fit or not.
