Front shock replacements?

    Damn, just disassembled the front struts only to find that I ordered the wrong part from the UK! :frustration:

    Turns out KYB 343294 are the totally wrong type for the front shocks. The piston shaft on the actual front shocks is at least 1/2"...

    The generic "KYB shock" picture on every site shows three types of shocks (see attached pic) ... I got the middle type, but I think I need the top or bottom type.

    Got a quote for the Genuine Subaru part - $350 / each. Oh well, the ones on there are good enough for now...

    Those things are worth more than their weight in gold.
    I'm assuming they are wleded together with no chance of disassembly.
