Using 4.11 rear diff from 98 forester, what axles to use?

Post by tsbpenguin »

Working on installing the rear diff from a 98 forester to complete my 5mt and ej22t swap. The forester axles seem to be too long and I'm not sure if the outer joint is the same. Are there any other factory axles I should run, or will swapping on bc legacy outer joints solve my problem?

I just installed 2 vlsd rear ends one in my 90 which all I needed was second gen. Legacy axles.

Thanks! Took my forester axles back to Super Rupair in Boulder and they swapped em for 2nd gen legacy axles for me. Fit perfectly
