In this video I install Subaru Impreza rear lateral links (aka lower control arms) & TSS rear subframe on my GC WRX STI project car. The rear lateral links on older Subarus is prone to severe rusting. This can make it very difficult to remove the links, bushings, and other components. Instead of using heavy tools or extreme heat, we can use leverage. While I was doing that, I decided to change my OEM subframe. Being from the northeast of USA, it was pretty old and rusty. I replaced it with a custom rear subframe from TSS that is lighter, stiffer, and better looking.

Did you reuse the factory bolts for the lateral arms to the subframe or did you get replacements??
https://youtu.be/6adL4slS7ik hopefully you will enjoy
How can i find that subframe?
Great video! I was wondering what do you think about those manzo lateral links and trailing arms. I need to upgrade my crappy ones
hey. im currently in the fitting of a rear subframe but the tank interfaces alot i already hammered in 1 inch now its flat with the tankband but still is not even close of fitting
I'm rebuilding my 2000 subie wagon and the rear is completely rusted.
This video is but the most impressive and detailed I've ever y.good work.
Now, where can I order this subframe?&all the parts from?
But man this looks great! Definitely something I wanna up for a future build.
I was gonna go a similar route but due to the price point I’m gonna use a 07 sti rear subframe on my SF5 wagon (first gen forester)
Appreciate the video! Clear directions and hidden mechanic strategies!! I'm for it!!
Anyone else have trouble getting the bolt out of the control arm
Jesus…those subframes are unreal
Damn Mate! the new subframe looks amazing!
Dang bro, I remember when you only had a few views on your vids. Keep up the good work. I'm going to start my swap next year.
About to rebuild my sti from scratch. This helps a lot man thank you!
Thanks for this, I'm currently stuck with that long lower bolt doing a bearing job, tried heat, air hammer, big hammer, etc. Just to get CV axle out, i'm like 2mm from not needing to remove the bolt (removed strut), but would rather remove it since i have to get the CV axle back in. After your video, i'm going to put the strut back on, and then try twisting the bolt some more with a breaker bar – it's at least twisting maybe 45 degrees now, but won't budge longitudinally. I've dealt with the bolt on another forester before no problems, but this one is STUCK!
thank you teacher and master mechanic sir = bloody well done !
about to doing the same thing as you. Loving the videos
