Outback Struts upgrade in Liberty
Posted: Sun May 27, 2007 5:45 pm
Guys,
There is a lot of information all over the place of how to upgrade your stock Liberty struts to Outback Struts to give you more ground clearance - I am planning to do that task, but really to start off - what DO we need?
As far I know you do need to replace the struts front and rears with Outback Struts.... But what about the coils? Use stock Liberty coils in Outback Struts?
I heard that if you get rear FWD Liberty's coils to give a bit more lift than standard AWD Liberty's coils??
Outback Trailing arms - is that for rear only or front? And I think there are various of prices some from $50 - $60 could you provide part numbers and exact amount?
Are there any other mods that you require that you need before starting the tasks?
What about sway bar issues? - What needs to be done?
At the moment - I have new outback struts and I need trailing arms - Will get 2" lift kit in within 6 months or more - depending funds.
And lastly what is the height of before and after upgrade and further 2" lift?
If there are good replies here - I would like this to be made as sticky topic.
Cheers
