Subienation88 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 OK I've been reading forums now on this site. So I wanna update my undercarriage like the cv axles control arms all sway bars links etc. On my subi I rear drums I wanna change that to disk. Now since I have forrester starts an springs wheel spacers. I wanted to see if I could get an 03 an take that an bolt it right to my 98. Now with the 03 forrester CV axles that should just slide into my 98 an should I grab the forrester CV I wanna wider stance on beef up my undercarriage so when I put the 5/6 inch lift on its done proper plus my buddy has a bunch of Subaru's in his dad's Junk yard so if I can take an 03 it would be awesome need some wisdom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 (edited) You can bolt on all that stuff but it's not going to get you to a reliable 5" or 6" lift. The axles can't take more than about 3". You will need to do subframe spacers, strut base extensions, steering linkage extension, brake lines, and camber correction... plus a lot more. Honestly you might as well buy a truck because after all that you're still going to break axles and strut tops left and right. Suspension reliability is pretty poor at those heights. Expect to do a lot of repairs. GD Edited July 10, 2017 by GeneralDisorder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
