JMLegacy Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 So since no one can tell me what's causing the sound (via inspection), i'm going with what I know from a prev car, and what was discussed in another thread. I'm replacing my LCA bushings and strut mounts. I'm JDM, so I assume using the spec B strut mounts wont be a problem with my setup. Only problem is, i've changed to KYB, can I make up the spacer using washers underneath the bolts? http://www.fredbeansparts.com/subaru-legacy-spec-b-front-strut-mounts.html LCA Bushings:http://www.fredbeansparts.com/whiteline-front-inner-control-arm-bushing-kit.html Is this the right part? this is the part that normally goes bad right? I hope these are the polyurethane ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Cannot Play Bass Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Before moving forward, I would suggest trying to tighten the end links and checking your sway bar bushings. A mere 1/9 turn on the endlinks finally solved my problems, but that was after replacing bushings and several months of trying to track it down. I cannot speak to about the strut mounts, but the bushing that usually tears on the lower control arm is found here: http://www.fredbeansparts.com/whiteline-legacy-gt-standard-anti-dive-kit.html Looking at the picture below, courtesy of Infamous, the bushing that I linked appears on the left. The bushing that you linked appears in the right in the middle: http://www.infamousperformance.net/media/02/a20791b135034f95afc7b7_m.jpg I figured that I would replace both while the control arms were off and have never looked back.

JMLegacy Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 I knew it that those LCA bushings looked weird ! When you say endlinks, where exactly are you talking/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
