Hey thanks! I’ve driven it hundreds of miles by now so I think I’m gonna make one more extended trip before finishing up the rest of repairs. Also good tip on the bushings I’ll get around to them if I’m still driving it 40k from now

On my 1993 Subaru Legaxy. I’ve had a really messed up left rear steering knuckle where the control arm bushing is bent out of shape. I’ve been wondering if this is going to contribute to premature transmission failure as I’ve heard it’s bad to even drive with mismatched tires on Subaru AWD platform. Car drives okay till I get to around 55mpg where it starts shaking a lot and it will generally shake if I have it at the lower RPM range of any given gear. I’ve already driven it an awful lot all over my state. I want to know if I might be OK to make this road trip I’m thinking of making or take it back home and get it all fixed up completely ASAP. Thanks guys!

Been a month or two into getting my unfortunately wrecked Subaru back on the road. Almost there but I can’t find a replacement coil spring supposed to fit my legacy. Will a coil spring from a newer model more or less get the job done?

Thanks that’s a great idea might just have to try it

I slid off a highway overpass and crashed the rear suspension into a conveniently placed municipal drainage access port. For the last week I've been trying to take the rear trailing arm off and I think I broke the fastening nuts because two of the bolts are spinning freely stuck in the chassis. Currently running through my head what kind of process would make the most sense to be able to get these free spinning bolts out,
