December 23, 201015 yr It is said over on legacy central, the topmounts are different on the 91 from the 92+ You will need to reuse your topmounts if that is the case.
December 25, 201015 yr Author i cant register for legacy central it teels me too list a model of subaru manufactures or has manufactued in the past i dont get it WTF does that mean anyone else have this problem?
December 29, 201015 yr Author finally found some bent parts after replaceing parts the LR spindle was bent where the strut bolts up bent about a quater inch or so the dude that said u dont know whats bent until other parts are present was correct thanx for all the help guys. the strut may be bent still? puttin it togather tmw:-\
January 12, 201115 yr I'm dealing with a similar issue. Son hit a curb with rear wheel. Wheel is shot. Forward lateral link bent/ twisted and the ear on the subframe or cross-member where the link bolts on was bent aft, so the bolt head was rubbing on the axle boot clamp. The strut was bowed also. Had a frame shop straighten the cross member and bolted on a new lateral link and trailing arm. and strut. Replaced rim and drove it. I think it must have damaged the bearings. There is a growl and when I turn the spindle by hand I feel a little roughness and a little bump, once each revolution. I just gotta figure how to get that long bolt free from the knuckle that the two lateral links bolt to, so I can replace the hub and knuckle. Any tips?
January 12, 201115 yr PB Blaster... lots of it. And "the hot wrench". Those bolts are famous... or infamous... for causing problems getting the rear knuckle removed from the car. If you have to, cut the ends off and hammer it out.
