Scott545 Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I live in Vermont and my 2008 Forester needs new struts, I think, and ride height here is critical due to how bad our roads are. I've got 152,000 on my '08 Subie Forester. Is there a source other than Subaru to replace the struts and springs at all corners? Any other suggested mods and sources are appreciated - its close to paid off, and I love it, and want to start the improvements with each part out/in now.

ccrinc Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I found a website today that looks good! www.justsuspension.com KYB struts and shocks at a fabulous price! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairtax4me Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I've seen that site and Ajusa.com referenced for good prices on KYB struts. KYB is the OEM supplier for Subaru. Their Excel-G line is basically a stock replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edrach Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Shipping might be prohibitive from this source, but I buy most of my upgrade stuff from Paul Eklund at Primitive Racing in Tigard (near Portland) Oregon. Paul is a competitive stage rallyist and can advise (and sell) whatever you need to upgrade your Forester. I certainly don't want, or need, a stage rally capable car but I found good advice from Paul based on what I want out of my Impreza wagon. http://www.get-primitive.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott545 Posted March 29, 2012 Author Share Posted March 29, 2012 Thanks - I want to go through every sub-system and start building out a true Vermont war wagon. At 152,000, though, when the clutch gets replaced I'm going to toss this engine and put in a lower mileage one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
