Rear suspension assembly

Post by gx_rex » Sun Feb 18, 2007 8:17 am

Hey, today i started on doing my conversion, putting the wrx running gear into my 96 GX impreza. I am still using the car as my daily driver so decided that i would put the rear assembly in now and do the engine and gearbox etc later on. My big question is if there is any difference in the strut tops on the 2WD vs AWD?
I had to replace the rear shocks while i was pulling the back end apart as they were shagged but driving it now it seems to wander and tyres sqeal around corners. Is there such a thing as a rear wheel alignment on the WRX backend?
Also if anyone in perth would happen to have the bracket for the drivers side rear swaybar could you let me know..
