    Well I think at least two other people, besides LegacyPGT, might know what these are for. Bikerboy looks like you better starting looking harder... hehehe.

    I just checked and it looks like they might have all four from a 1999 still in stock. I think you said you needed older ones for yours. You should call them tomorrow. It is in St. Joe but I guess I could be persuaded to pick them up for you:).

    I hope this link works for you. Looks like they would ship them too but it is about a 10 minute drive from school if you want me to get them. I might be down to FS this week so it might work out well.

    Just picked them up today. Yes they are stock Forester strut assemblies. Not sure if I will have time to do big stud setup but clearence will be nice and make for a smooth ride this winter. Yes I know it is going to look very strange but hey function is what I am after.

    when i was looking for forester struts about a month ago they wanted quite a bit for them used, i'm pretty sure i called pam's.

    something like 75 for the fronts and 65 for the rears, and that's a piece:eek3:

    so i decided against them. but pam's usually does have good prices.

    $50 and $60 a piece I think is what I payed. Seems to be about what they are running. Could not find any private sale.
