offroadsubaruguy Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 does anyone know what the svx spline count for the axels is? and are the front control arms any different? im trying to come up with a way to make my legacy wider, but not having any luck, so figured i'd try this route, but i dont have access to a svx......

X35 Performance Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 On the transmission end, they are the same, not sure about the outboard end though.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benebob Posted November 8, 2005 Share Posted November 8, 2005 Well my mechanic has used Legacy axles in SVXs as the rebuilder he used retired and he can't find a reliable source. It fits right in there so my guess is it isn't any wider or its only a slight bit that the axles are swappable. If you want a little wider track what about some spacers between the wheel and hub? Should be able to go about a 1/2 inch on either side without getting longer lugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offroadsubaruguy Posted November 9, 2005 Author Share Posted November 9, 2005 i had thought of spacers, but i dont want to prematurely wear out the wheel bearing....... i might just have to space them anyway as the tires i want to run arent going to fit unless i do......

Got ours from summit racing. Still trying to get 275s on our svx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamal Posted November 9, 2005 Share Posted November 9, 2005 How about using newer Impreza sedan (02+) control arms/lateral links/axles? I think all you need to do is cut off a bit of a bushing on the control arms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
