Hi all

I have an 03 forester SG forester that is in some desperate need for some new suspension (the rear left self leaving strut has leaked everywhere and it's goonnnne!). The car has 200,000km so I will replace everything.

What would people recommend?

I understand that if I get non SLS I will have to replace the spings as well - which I am fine with but I am hoping to get away with this as cheap as possible.

any advice would be great!

Pedders do pre assembled strut spring kits for the rear of SG Foresters, or you can get the same thing off rockauto.com.
Other option is getting non sls struts and something like King springs, and assembling that but the pre assembled struts are easier to fit.

I have a pair of SF rear struts, Pedders brand, from the SF I wrecked last year, if they are any good to you (I was planning on turfing them off as I can't use them on the Brumby). Not sure if SF and SG are the same though...
