manlar Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 So, I have an 01 impreza obs with an auto that is going out, I also have a 5 sp manual from an 02 forester with rear diff, drive shaft, trans support bracket, pedals, shifter. My only issue is figuring out which cv axles I need to aquire to make this swap happen. Do I just buy manual cv's for my obs or do I need to buy cv's for the forester? I have searched for months trying to find an answer on my own and am no closer to making this happen. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt167 Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 (edited) <p>I don't think that it really matters TBH. They both will have different part numbers between manual OBS and Manual Forester most likely. However the Forester axles are likely to work in your OBS just fine. The Forester 4.11 trans is the same one used in the RS.</p> Edited December 5, 2017 by matt167 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 Lucky Texan Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 if the compressed length and spline count is the same, doesn't matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 (edited) You use the CV's it already has. They are the same for auto/manual. Forester CV's are slightly longer due to the suspension lift. Will not be needed on the OBS.
