Just wondering if KSFL-22 Impreza springs will fit in the front of my Gen 3 Liberty on standard Gen 3 struts.

According to the king springs website. No, you need the KSFL-28 & KSRL-27.

Do KSFL-22's fit on gen 3 standard struts?


Posted Today, 06:18 PM


Yeah i saw that too but on some other forums people have put KSFL-22's on the front and KSRL-29's on the rear of there Gen 3's?

Apparently the KSFL-22's sit a littel bit lower than the Gen 3 Liberty "Low" (KSFL-27) springs.


ok, Thanks Aussie

Do you have a sedan or wagon?

AussieTemplar, do you have any side on photos of how your old car sat with the Impreza springs in the front?

Thanks Aussie :rolleyes:

How much did it sag in the front?? dont want it to sag too much encase it effects the shocks etc.

Cheers for the offer Scott but i think the model of those springs are super lows and they would be wayy to low haha

Sedan J-C if your asking me.

Are the 22's the 'low's ?

Chris gave me some impreza lows -dunno the number of em just now- which are apparently the liberty's superlow equivalent; (anyone confirm?)

..want to know how they'd look before i make an effort to put them in only to have a result with little difference from my current liberty lows (on bilstien struts)(will the billies make a difference?)

Not much more. Sat very nice I never had any issues unless I was entering a drive way in which you must take it very slow on an angle.
Shocks held up too.

yeah true, i already bought the springs and waiting on them to arrive, they look very nice in your pictures but you said they sagged a bit which got me a bit worried :unsure:

haven't got any rear springs yet because i thought the back already sits nicely but is it advised to buy some for the rear aswell?

Most springs will sag a bit as they start to wear in, wouldnt get to worried.
