Opinion On Strutmasters Conversion Kits

I was looking on strutmasters website and saw they had a conversion kit for my '92 Legacy L Wagon. I was just wondering if anyone has purchased or heard anything about them, and if they are worth it?

no different than stripping off what you have now, and putting on stock springs and struts
I think you can do better with used springs and perches and new struts, and way better if you can find fresh springs, struts, perches and strut tops as a whole used package. someone who has upgraded then parted out due to a blown tranny or a wreck would be ideal, you can get everything for much less
search to find quite a few people on this site who have done just that

I hope that's what he's referring to.

Yeah, it's the air suspension, and it has gone out. So now I'm riding on the bump stops, and I can't take it any more. I just need something quick and cheap.
I was also looking at doing: GR-2's, Whiteline springs, Group-n-topmounts, and spring perches. However, I've heard it takes forever and a day to get whiteline springs in, and I'd like to get this taken care of ASAFP. I still might go with this, but I was just looking at other options.

I was told 10-12 weeks to get my whitelines (rears).

Try Don Nimi at PDM Racing

Yeah, PDM was out of stock of the rears 70368 so they had to order them for me.
Other whiteline springs probably wouldn't take so long.

Just just took off a set of struts, springs, and topmounts from my 93 L sedan. Front struts are gr2's from two years ago and the rears were on the car when I bought the it 100k ago. I don't think they were leaking, but I'd have to go look. They rode fine, but they got tossed in favor of some H&R coilovers, of which I'll have pics up soon. I'd get rid of them cheap
