Ok so the Users name is not me but heres the deal, Im the Mechanic for Alex and he just dropped his car off to me to put his New Suspension on, But the Struts are way to long and wont bolt up, The way i understand what he bought is a Set of 04 WRX GR2 struts and a set of Stock springs off of Something, He is telling me that this will bolt right up and lower the car but the struts are way to long.

His car is a 99 LGT
Struts are 04 WRX
Springs are ??????

I took a Pic of the struts with my Phone so if anyone can help me text me 402-305-9298

You need rotate the TOP HATS or UPPER SHOCK MOUNTS with the 3x studs until they line up.

The bottom should have no issue bolting up.

You will need to REASSEMBLE the shock/spring/top hat in order for it bolt in without issues.

Heres a guide .. -> viewtopic.php?f=13&t=13510&view=previous (http://www.sl-i.net/FORUM/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=13510&view=previous)

I really need pics to help you and how does Alex not know where the springs came from?

I will post more info..

There should be no reason why that combo wont work.... Everything sounds correct.
