Lowering 4th gen

[seamusep3]

Is there a definitive "how to lower 4th gen" post? I've searched and read a ton off comments.

I'm looking for right at or just below stock legacy height

-are upper perches needed and if so which ones.

-If jdm legacy wagon

springs are recommended where does one find them

-are usdm legacy struts and springs worth it or should I go to aftermarket?

- I'm not looking at tracking this car, I want a lower center of gravity and a overall tighter handling car. Not to mention eat up some of that fender gap.

OP posted a step by step to his lowering and gives part numbers.

If you plan on running stock legacy suspension you can switch out the upper arms to get rid of in the rear. I went a little lower on mine so the legacy arms weren't as worthwhile as I would have liked them to be. Hope this helps.
