GeneralDisorder Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 What is the difference between the Hatch struts and Wagon/ Brat and Sedan struts??? Is there any interchanging between and or retrofitting??? Nope. Brat's don't have struts for one thing - neither do "sedans" - you must be talking about the EA81 hatch or the EA82 3 doors. Wagons are shorter than hatch struts.... and are you talking EA81 or EA82? Makes no difference as they are all different lengths. You can buy the things brand new anyway.

newsoobdude Posted September 21, 2006 Author Share Posted September 21, 2006 Yeah sorry I got on a brain fart. It's an 85 1600cc 2wd. If for some reason I buy it off my friend I'd be converting it to 4wd. But I was just wondering because he says they are unique to the Hatch and hard to find.

TheSubaruJunkie Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 There shouldnt be any difference between Wagon, Hatch, Sedan or Brat struts. However, 2WD and 4WD struts do differ. All are interchangeable. -Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 By "hatch struts" I figured he meant the gas struts that hold the tailgate up Which is it? GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSubaruJunkie Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 Your an idiot Rick... why would he mention a Brat if he were talking about lift struts? :-p -Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 First impression of the thread title I guess. GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daeron Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 yah no dude, i thought the same damn thing! i thought he was talking about the hatch support strut.. i even read it, thought that, and noticed how close it could be to being misinterpreted as strut cartridge on a hatch... oops. thats funny.

desertsubaru Posted September 23, 2006 Share Posted September 23, 2006 Nobody did say what wheel struts work on what. Like will a 91 ea 82 4x4 wagon strut work on a 86 ea 82 4x4 wagon. I did search but couldnt find it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
