    I've always heard WRX struts and springs will drop right into 95-99 Legacy OB but does anybody know if struts and springs from an 02 Outback Sport will bolt right in to a 98 Legacy Outback? Or am I better off just gettin some KYB GR2 put in?

    And will axels from an AT 2.2 Legacy work for a 2.5L Legacy Outback?

    rear suspension on '00+ legacies is completely different from -'99 legacies and -'07 imprezas. so, no.

    '95-'99 outback struts will work fine though.



    axles. yes.

    02 OBS would be the normal Impreza style rear suspension and would bolt up to a pre-00 legacy outback.

    oops, thank you. I missed the "sport".


    yes, an outback sport is based on an impreza, not a legacy. so yea, I stand corrected.
