KYB GR-2 for 99' LGT ok??

[ShadowVlican]

the KYB GR-2 struts seem to be quite popular here for the BD series however...

in my recent email conversation with a KYB representative, he told me they don't have working struts for my vehicle because it's a "30th anniversary edition" (i don't know the difference, i bought this car used as a regular 2.5GT... it's got cloth and fabric interior if that helps :lol:)

wth??!

i thought a BD was a BD was a BD!!

here's my VIN: 4S3BD6753X7210001 (Vehicle Production Sequence altered for privacy's sake)

anyways... i thought a BD was a BD was a BD!!?? what's going on?


my email conversation:


1995-99 4WD (Exc. Air Susp., 99 GT & 30th
A n n iv e r s a r y ) 334111 334115 334112 334116

does this mean that you don't manufacture struts for my 1999 Subaru
Legacy 2.5GT? (chassis code BD6)

thanks


We do not offer front struts for the 1999 legacy sport wagon, if you can
give me your VIN I will check to see if we offer a strut that will work.


Thank you

Oh no no!

this is a 1999 Subaru Legacy 2.5GT SEDAN, not a wagon

here's my vin:
4S3BD6753X7210001

please give me the model numbers for all four corners!

thanks!

We do not offer struts that will work with your vehicle because it is the 30th anniversary edition.


Thank you
so can anyone tell me if these GR-2 (model# 334111 334115 334112 334116) will work in my car?

They don't know what they're doing? Any 96-99 legacy gt front strut will work. 30th anniversary was just a badge. wagon and sedan both had the same front struts.

KYB GR-2 for BD will work with any BD. No worries.

Buy from jdmwerks13 on ebay for possibly the best deal.
