Thank you! Are they the same for outback's and legacy's?

Had a tree limb fall on our hood Cracked the hood a bit, but also cracked / split the top of the air filter housing (where the filter is now exposed). I really only need the top half of that housing, found one online for a 1998 Legacy (but doesn't specify if it's from a wagon) but does say 2.2. Would this fit? Does anyone have a clue on that? Are they interchangeable? Thanks in advance! 1999 Subaru Legacy Wagon 2.2

1999 Subaru Legacy Wagon: Hit a curb slightly while making a tight slow turn, guess the curb was wedged under Driver Front side and when backing up, it pulled the corner off, stripping the bolt holes. This is the wife's car - didn't realize how low to the ground everything is. Her model looks like this: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/4/4f/Subaru_Legacy_30th.jpg So yeah, looks like the bolt holes are now stripped. The front left is seperated from right in front of the wheel and then a bit wrapping over into the front side. How difficult is it to repair / pop back into place? If I bring it to a small shop, would they be able to create some new holes to secure everything pretty easily? Or do I need to take this to a body shop (gulp). Car has 126k on it so I really don't want to spend a lot and just want it to be secured - then I can put some touch up paint on it. Any advice appreciated!!

Thanks for that. Snowing badly here, considering bringing it into the shop my friend owns. Can anyone give me a rough estimate on what a "decent" cost would parts/labor for 1 O2 sensor parts/labor and the ball joint parts and labor if I have to go into the shop? Thanks!

Thanks greatly!

i have a 1999 Legacy, I believe: 2.2L 2212CC H4 FI VIN: EJ22E I am told I need an 02 sensor and a driver side front ball joint replaced. How do I know which 02 sensor I need? Will the code tell me since I think there are 2 on the car, right? There are a bunch on here and look very different: http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/subcategory_oxygen-sensors_16466?isAllVehicle=false&showTitle=&vehicleIdFromReq=41459&vehicleIdSearch=41459 Same thing with the ball joints, I see there are only 3 listed, any recommendations? http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/PartSearchCmd?storeId=10151&catalogId=10051&pageId=partTypeList&suggestion=&actionSrc=Form&langId=-1&searchTerm=ball+joint&vehicleIdSearch=41459&searchedFrom=header Looking to do this myself with a mechanic friend - any ideas on hours of labor to do both of these? Thanks SO MUCH for the help!!!

Hey all - in need of new struts. The front ones are apparently REALLY bad, but going to do all 4 and get them over with. Can someone in the know help me confirm part #'s for Monroe strut assemblies and strut mounts? 1999 Legacy wagon 2.2 There seem to be a million choices (without air suspension, etc). I have ABS if that helps. Trying to order the correct ones w/o issues. There is a sale on Monroe struts near me and I'd like to get them before that goes away. Thanks SO MUCH in advance!

Thanks guys. Yeah, got the parts, I don't fully want to mess with it. Been hearing / feeling some clunking going over bumps etc, and there is definitely play in the wheels - so this seems like a good bet. I appreciate it - just wanted to make sure $100 for labor on this was good to go.

1999 subaru legacy - How hard are these to do? i got both left and right side inner tie rod parts for $60. Was quoted $100 to install - does that seem "reasonable"? Thanks!

I will check that all. The left side "works" but sounds like crap. The right side is just basically out (I can hear just a little sound).

I have a regular legacy wagon (not OBW). And because the head unit is after market, there is no amp attached to it. I am wondering if there is an external amp somewhere I don't know about and it's blown. Going to check under the seats later tonight. I just don't think this could be a speaker issue. i am thinking there is an amp somewhere, or a messed up ground wire somewhere.

I would agree with this assessment - but that's why I was wondering if there was an amp. The speakers are stock as far as I know. The headunit was aftermarket, but if there is an amp, I have no idea where it is (never seen it). It was my first though (amp) but not sure how to determine if there is an amp somewhere. If it's not a stock amp, then I don't think there is one.

That's a very good idea, though this is a wagon, so the rear speakers are still in the doors. Which is why I am not sure what the hell changed all of a sudden. Really, my wife said it was after she got gas, and things were just crazy after that. Not sure what would have caused that. Definitely NOT the head unit. I don't mind replacing speakers, but seems odd they would have blown. Wire short seems plausable, but not sure even where to start with that. I guess it IS possible there was a blown "right" side and speakers are going haywire, but I really figured this would have been a head unit or amp issue. With no amp in the stock system for the aftermarket head unit to go through, I am lost.

Basically, everything on the left side plays at a low level (cd, aux, am/fm). Right side can barely be heard. When the volume is raised a bit higher, there is distortion on the left side - when raised a bit past that, it leads to a jarring high pitch squeeal that cannot be stopped unless the car is turned off. Keep in mind, this all just happened all of a sudden. No problems for over a year and then this - I am kind of lost.

I agree with you. my point is, that I tried a different head unit today and still had the same issue! So I need to locate the issue cause the problem and go from there. Since it sounds like I don't have a stock amp in the car, I am getting a bit confused as to what it can be. Certainly I can put new speakers on there, but I have a feeling it's not that. Gonna take the speakers out and inspect it next weekend as it sounds like I need to pull the interior of the door off to look at the speakers.
