OK... I've been reading lots of threads on strut swaps and I'm so confused. I've got a pair of '99 Outback Rear Strut/Spring assemblies I'd like to swap into my '95 L AWD. Is it a straight bolt-in swap, or do I need to change the strut tops and/or springs?

Should bolt right in.

You do realize that the rear of the car will sit a couple of inches higher if you put outback struts in only the back?

 

This will mess up headlight aim and handling. You would need to put outback struts in the front too.

Yeah... planning to do the fronts, too, but somebody got to the front struts of my donor car before I did. (They also got the engine, transmission, rear hatch, carpet, fuel pump, radio, and assorted other odds and ends... all this from a car that had been out in the you-pull yard for just two days!)
