Junkie Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 I have my eye on a set of Forester XT struts, 04. One of the top hats is cut up as he had difficulty with a stud. My current top hats are all in good shape. Would I be able to re-use one of mine, or would I need to buy a new one? My car's a 99 Legacy Outback.

lmdew Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Yes, the should swap over. Sometimes you will run into spring seat issues, but you will not know for sure until you have the struts out. Sometimes I have to put a washer under the nut to make up for the longer stud on the strut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Junkie Posted April 28, 2014 Author Share Posted April 28, 2014 Thanks. What's a reasonable price to pay for them? He says they're in good shape, no leaks. I'd be picking them up so no shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86BRATMAN Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 If it's a front top hat then yes, if it's a rear then no. Luckily all 04-07 impreza and forester top hats are interchangeable and fairly cheap to buy new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
