03lego Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 So I’m new here... looking for info... I have a 2003 legacy L sedan and want a little more height. Have the option to purchase struts from a 2003-08 Forester, wanted to know if that’s a direct bolt in, or if I need to change anything. Also, I’ve noticed people talking about disconnecting sway bar... what about adding a bracket to drop the sway bar 2 inches or so?? Any and all advise appreciated!

heartless Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 it was a direct bolt in on the earlier 90's cars, but they changed the rear suspension at some point (not sure exactly when) so the rears probably not. I did it with a 95 Legacy and loved it.. only reason to unbolt the sway bar is to make it easier to get the longer strut mounted - once in, the sway bar gets bolted back up. I am sure others with more experience with the 2000+ models will chime in soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
03lego Posted December 29, 2019 Author Share Posted December 29, 2019 Checking further into it, yes, tears will not fit. Different mounting. But, I’d love to find out more about what I can swap into my L to give me more ride height without too much troubles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
