SubieWarrior Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 I have an 88 GL Wagon whose suspension has gone bye bye. Surprising I know. I would like to replace the shock/struts and springs with heavy duty ones. I am not worried about raising the wagon any, though I won't mind if it get raised a few inches. I am not planning on off-roading, but I would just like to be able to haul things without worrying about shortening the life of my suspension. So, what would all of you SubieGurus recommend? Thanks in advance. P.S. I should mention that my little wagon is FWD and 5-speed if that makes any difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better Handlin` Good Luck! Any recommendations on exactly which parts to track down? Years of the cars in question or whatever? And what about shocks/struts, just go with the regular ones or are there some heavy duties that would be better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
