Looking for coil overs for my second generation liberty

Postby lowlibowner » Thu Dec 08, 2022 5:34 pm

Hi, im new the Subaru liberty platform and finally decided to look for some coil overs! I recently bought some but made a mistake and bought 3rd generation even though they were the same year
I'm in need of some Subaru liberty coil overs for BD/BG/BK not the BE/BH (those being what i purchased) anyone here own a 1998 Subaru liberty second generation and have coil overs?

The trick is to go by the chassis code body year, eg year model, not production year, since model changeovers happen mid year.

I don’t know apart from a vague memory that various model years are compatible.

As such, compatibility guides exist, so I googled it, like so: https://www.google.com.au/search?q=suba ... ent=safari

Then I chose a lib/leg specific guide and site, the second, no third or fourth hit at sli com.

Note being a usdm site, there’s a usdm bias in the info.
