Rear Spring diameter, Rear strut mount bolt pattern
Does anyone know any of this information? It doesn't matter if it's ID or OD, I just need to know the diameter of the stock rear springs (top diameter moreso than bottom diameter), and the bolt pattern of the stock rear strut mounts.

No reply from mbtoloczko.
I measured the rear strut top bolt pattern. It's an equilateral triangle with sides roughly 4". VERY good news! . Spring diameter doesn't really matter anymore, but I've got a hunch (after inpertrating some half ass info) it's around 100mm ID . New suspension soon! Last edited by THAWA; 02-06-2006 at 01:05 PM. |

Snap! I meant the rear for all of this stuff. I could have sworn that I put that in the original post, but I guess not. At any rate, with an inch ruler (mm would be better but I don't know where it is :\) the fronts are an isosceles triangle with the base being 4.25" and the legs being 5". I don't understand the reason for this, other subarus have an equilateral triangle with all sides being 5". Does the isosceles-ness aid in some way? Never the less, a new (MUCH cheaper) suspension option will be verified in a week or so, after I order a replacement front strut mount for my noisy one.
Also, the SVX rear struts are hella easier to take out than any other new gen non-wagon subarus. You have a straight shot to the bolts, instead of having the rear deck area in the way. Last edited by THAWA; 02-06-2006 at 01:07 PM. |
