Do some L Series parts fit Foresters

I think our old L Series is sold. We have a shed full of parts that we will then also get rid of. But before sending them on their way, do any of the L series running gear or suspension bits for a 1991 L fit a 2000 Forester (standard model) ???????
Bearings, tie rods, ball joints, drive shafts, cv's, doj's, rubber boots for cv's barke calipers ??
Any insight appreciated.

Like Alex so nicely put it, I also can not think of anything that might be the same.
Time to posts some for sale threads I feel

For Sale notices on the way.
It is actually nice to clean it out, some of the spares were a once is a 30 year event spare and just did not want to part with them as you know Murpheys law.
The partner is also
about the clean out.
Perhaps someone will swap some forester parts for a trailer load of L series parts.

The only one thing I can think of is the rear diff which is same housing as Forester! except the flange and the cover bolts.. That is all!

Do not forget...
Pedal rubbers - did not change from 1979-2011
The rubber boots for the interior light switches in the door frames - same duration, if not longer?

Saw the old car off yesterday, it is headed for the "shitbox rally", a charity event from Sydney to Perth in May, apparently it is going to be painted all over with daffodils

Lots of subies in it apparently.
Gave them some of the spares for the journey.

I'll keep an eye out for it when it gets over here
That's a very cool rally and for a great cause. Would be awesome to do one time.. looks like they have a lot of fun
