Default Springs...help needed asap

Hey, I was wondering if all the springs out there will fit FWD Legacys as well as AWD? I'm going to call the manufacturer of the springs Im buying(Intrax) tommorow, but what can I say, I'm impatient! Thanks a lot

No,

FWD & AWD springs are goin to be a little different.

The front springs should be ok, however the rears are.....or....should have a different spring rate and such due to the fact the FWD does not have the rear diff and such.

Are these springs for your 95 legacy? I wasn't aware they made a FWD legacy in 95.

I looked at Intrax springs several years back for my legacy. I wasn't too impressed with how the vendors or the manufact handled some of my technical questions and such. Just a little FYI

Yeah, these are for my 95. Haha it was an option NOT to have awd that year. I guess the previous owner decided they didnt need it. So if they have a differant spring rate my car will sag more in the rear and it will affect the handling? Any idea how much? So far, all the springs I've seen have said "AWD". Thanks

Would new adjustable struts, like units from KYB, be able to correct any hadling problems I might encounter? Thanks

Wait a sec, it just occured to me that my car wouldnt be lowered 1.5" in the rear, cause the springs are firmer, well thats perfect cause the front of my car sits high anyways. But hey any idea if the springs are the same size? Thanks
