86subaru Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 i got the rear struts off my 86 4wd d/r wagon , [ came off easy] my question is how do you adjust them ?? i see 3 settings , it is at it's lowest setting , there are 2 higher settings ,there is some rust not to bad , another question , if i adjust them to the highest setting how much more will the back end set up ?? someone told me to adjust them while on the car ,there are going onto my wife's 88 turbo full time 4wd a/t wagon , there are already adjustable struts on the front which are on it's highest setting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonwingsubaru Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 you have to compress the spring to adjust that bottom piece and on the highest setting with good springs, i got about 1 1/2 inches out of it when i adjusted that up on my wagon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
