Yes they will work, gc era cars have the same geometry as our cars.

Um, what car do you have?

And the GC is 93-01. The GD is 02-07. 96-07 makes no sense as far as a year range.

He's got a 95-99 legacy, only reason I know this is from his post on the Facebook page I saw before this.

^The ebay post specifics 93-01 in the description but 02-07 in compatibility. Ebay seller are horrible for this.. It you have a pre-99 legacy they will work if 00 up they wont.
I would expect much from these for quality. Skeptical at most

They will work fine...for about 2 years. I live up in MN and after about 2-3 year they rust up real bad and make a ton of noise! Goin on year 5 and they are no longer adjustable and every time I hit a pot hole it sound like a wheels gonna come off.

Yeah, that makes sense as one of the first things they cut quality on with cheap metal parts are the grades of metal and the paint/rust proofing they receive. If you live in the salt belt, don't cheap out on stuff like this.

People in the land of 240's say the same thing about Godspeed stuff. I run all of their arms on my S14 and I beat the piss out of them at the track. Never had a problem. Run them and if they last 2 years you got your moneys worth.

People in the land of 240's ....
wait, people still drive those things?

[Wiscon_Mark]

I think our comments were more about corrosion resistance than the effectiveness during hard use. Do people really use 240s during the winter? I wouldn't think they'd want to risk rusting out what will be a classic car pretty soon.

[fogls]

Nothing classic about them. And yes people still drive them. Well I drive mine when it runs properly. Been sorting out an electrical issue for a while. The corrosion can be fixed with some clean up and a repaint if that really matters to you.

[Wiscon_Mark]

Nothing classic about them.

Given that I've seen probably 2 in the last 5 years that aren't complete rust buckets, I'd be inclined to disagree with you on that. They're definitely a future classic.

Personally, I don't think you should have to repaint & clean suspension parts every year to keep them from rusting. Given the cost of an alignment (provided you remove the part) and the hassle, I think it's worth it to drop money on a better quality part.
