PM me

I'll trade you my front cloth seats for your passenger seat

Were you talking to me on that comment?

I'm want to get ride of my OEM 05 LGT Wagon Black leather interior. Overall condition is very good. The driver side has one of the stitch on the bottom part (cushion) which is spreading a little but no tear at all. Picture will be coming shortly. I took the driver side seatbelt lock to fit on my new seats, one SRS sensor (little black riveted part under driver seat) and one power plug (pulled the connectors) so you will have to swap the ones from yours.

I will post pictures when I have them availlable.

I'm located in Montreal, Qc but we could also meet in Champlain, NY.

For now I would like to sale them outright but I may need some cloth seats in return.

Remember that they are year specific espacially for the 05.

Let me know.

I guess the actual name is trailing arm!!! The part that is in aluminium and holds the bearing housing

FredBeansParts can you tell me the price for a set of rear Spec B knuckle in PM

If the LGt hub are the same as the STI there is thicker metal where the studs are so I wouldn't try to redrill if that's the case.

 

The real reason to go to 5x114.3 is to use the R180 at the wheels so you don't have to use Spec B axles!!! anyway that is my only reason (plus the bonus to have more choice for wheels).

 

FBP can you tell me the price for a set of rear Spec B in PM

What are you looking for specifically?

Can you pictures a rear spec B uninstalled rear knuckle like you pictured the rear normal LGT?

Tell me if you would sell the rear normal LGT?

Could you measure the inside diameter and picture the outside also? Here are the bearing housing from the 2008STI:

FBP Would you sell them to me?

very intersting picture, Let me look at the normal LGT. From what I remember that hole is ot there.

FBP could you make me a sketch of the hole location. Maybe I say maybe the front bearing housing could fit in that hole. Let me go in the basement and pull out a picture for the bearing housing from the 09 STI!!!

BAck in 10 minutes

The splines are not the same (reason for the special axles for the Spec B R180 at diff and R160 at hub). I have a rear bearing/hub assbly at home for the STI08 and I measured the bolt patern for the bearing housing and they are not the same as the LGT. I will have the rear hub out of the LGT in two weeks to show pictures and what I think will make it work.

I( know that it doesn't I have the complete rear subframe assembly from a 08 STI at home. It would fit but the suspension is problematic so have another idea!!!

Stay tune...

From what I looked the front should be a piece of cake and have my ideas for the rear....

The rear cross member from a 08 STI + bolt directly to the rear but the Suspension is behind the axles on the 08 STI compared to LGT sitting in the front.

I have all at home to try to make it work. Starting to work on this in the next 2 weeks. Please stay tune for the update. I will post pictures off the process.

Now, if I could just fing Wagon Black Leathers...

If I get the 09 STI seats and can make them work out I will have mine for sale... I will let you know....

I would like to trade my set of OEM LGT 08 Spec B seats against a super mint set of 06 LGT with electric control on driver and passenger sedan black leather ONLY.

 

I would like to make the trade locally or in NY.

 

Looking for a trade plus cash on your side obviously for this very rare set.

 

Let me know your offers looking around 400$ on top

 

Thanks,

I will find how to make it work. I'm making it my year resolution.

Ok I have another idea, what about swapping the rear hub/bearing/holding plate from a 5x114.3 08-10 STI. Someone has a picture of the part on could take measurment.

Can someone take measurement of a front and rear hubs from a legacy.

So It looks like the Tribecca and the 2008 STI are the same but not the LGT. So for now I have no option with OEM parts

I found the one for the 2008 STI

Can you get your hands on the same from a 08 STI

Someone own a Tribeca and a LGT. I will go to the garage that is making my 6 sp swap (Wrong towing method and it's covered by my insurance) and take pictures of both to try to compare.

Received another Pm from Unclemat:

Nope. It's TOTALLY different suspension arrangement.

 

The issue is rear hubs that are different on Impreza/Forester vs. Legacy. I am not 100% sure about Tribeca but since it shares the same suspension design like these, I bet they won't fit. 99.999%

 

G.

Hummm, so I would have to verify that the bolt point would be the same. Anybody have an idea on the diameter for the handbrake for the tribeca. If it's the same as the STI that would be wounderfull. Perhaps a relocation bracket would be needed also but would hope not.
