You can swap the legacy springs over but would lose some height. Best is to get a lightly used set of struts/springs as an assembly and just bolt them in. Gives 2-3 inches of lift and you can clear up to a 28 inch tire. I have this set up with some 3/8 HDPE spacers on my 98 legacy and did the same with a 97 Impreza outback a number of years ago. Also helpful but not necessary (Unless you are maxing out tire size) is the trailing arm brackets from a 97-99 legacy outback. Keeps the hub centered in the rear wheel well. Read the sticky at the top for lifting an impreza. Everything on a legacy is identical except the rear tophats will have the same bolt pattern as an outback and wont need drilling. Hi, a new member here. I'm researching getting more ground clearance on my '95 Legacy Outback, and this thread confuses me a little bit. Can anyone clarify the following? a. It would seem that the suspension for a Legacy Outback is already a bit higher than a regular Legacy? b. If so, will the Forester suspension (a 97-02 according to this thread) give me additional height? c. And is it still a straight bolt-on? Thanks! Dan
