Installed some Saggy spacers to fix my camber and rear height on a WRX strut swap. Have a 10% off code for Paranoid Fabrications for our members.

After putting WRX struts into my Wagon, I ran into a problem with the rear
strut tower reverse-cone shape not centering in the designated chassis
hole, as due to my make-shift changes in the bolt-up design, it was no
longer a match.

Rough fit before:

Final fit with spacer:

This prevented the (rear) strut from fully seating, which caused a minor side-affect, no saggy butt syndrome,

but it also created positive camber (bottom of tire moved inwards = posi?).

This was a huge problem as it affected the handling so, that I did not have much confidence in taking twisteys.

 

I would have realized this if I properly prepared for the project, tutorials already describe this issue.

I
settled on some saggy butt spacers from Paranoid Fabrications for the
02-07 impreza top mounts I'm using, they took about two days to ship!!

And, per their contact page, you can reach them on FaceBook and they did promptly reply.

 

I
threw them on and used some silicone grease between the spacers and top
hats to prevent any unwanted noise. Worked like a charm! Rear sits
higher now, the tires are stanced properly, and honestly I have a decent
amount of clearance back there now. I'm about to measure my diff
clearance and post later.

HANDLING IS SOO MUCH BETTER now :D

 

I'm working on getting some discounts for y'all...

CHA-CHING  B)  PM me for a 10% discount for your spacer needs! http://www.paranoidfabrications.com/

Hey, it's something (10% off an order I believe).

 

Here's some pics of how it went:
