alaskasubienthusiast Posted November 5 Share Posted November 5 I have a 97 Legacy L wagon and my tires are rubbing at full compression in the rear. The suspension is super bouncy and clearly close to the end of its life so I want to replace it. I am wondering if coilovers are worth it or should I just get new oem struts? I want to keep close to the same ride height. My budget is pretty tight, but I don't want to buy something and then end up replacing it with something nicer in the future anyway.

ocei77 Posted Wednesday at 10:51 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 10:51 PM no, not worth it. Just get some KYB's for your model and call it a day. O. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmdew Posted Friday at 11:06 AM Share Posted Friday at 11:06 AM 1+ on KYB. If you have time and search the yards, I've found almost new KYB struts for <$50 each. Complete, just unbolt and bolt the replacements on. Has to be your lucky day in the yards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtdash Posted 3 hours ago Share Posted 3 hours ago (edited) Yeah- used - if AK has any options up there. Or RA for KYB struts - and you'll need a spring compressor. Pretty sure the good brands don't make (nor maybe anyone at this point) a full front or rear strut assembly for the 90s Legacy.
