I have the OEM suspension from my 1999 SUbaru Impreza OBS laying around, would that bolt into a 1998 Legacy???
The legacy I bought needs new struts but I am saving up for a few other things at the moment so I would rather wait and buy those when I can buy the springs too.

I believe the tophats are different.

I can swap out the tophats tho, so that would be an easy fix.

You will need to swap out the rear tophats. Besides that everything should bolt right up.

Should bolt up with the exception of the top hats. However, I remember using GC8 KYB AGX shocks on my 95 Legacy and it sat a bit higher (looked silly) than stock in the front than when it was on stock Legacy struts; I'm pretty sure the front perch is a bit different between struts. Springs I'm not sure about, as I used Legacy-specific lowering springs. Theoretically they should work if the struts work, but I'd be concerned about geometry given that the Legacy is a heavier car.

I'm having the same problem with busted struts. Do stock RS struts need anything done to them to fit an L? I need to replace mine soon before the rears cave in :/

IIRC the 02/03 WRX stuff is a direct fit to a 95-99 legacy/outback.
