Question about suspension interchageability

Post by Jsun »

Hey guys, I'm new here.. first post. I did some searching but was unclear on whether or not this will work? What I found was either spring only or strut only interchangeability. so here is my question:

I have a full 04 wrx suspension (strut, spring, top hats) all assembled, I just picked up a 93 legacy turbo and was wondering if it is possible to remove the leggy suspension as a whole assembled (strut, spring, top hats) and put in the 04 wrx suspension as a whole? so basically a direct swap?

If not what can i use from the 04 wrx suspension to combine with the leggy suspension to make it work? thanks guys.

I believe you'll need the front upper spring perches off of your Legacy spring/strut assembly.

so just the spring perches? everything else from the 04 can be use? so the rears 04 rears are a direct bolt in top hats and all?
