Default Correctly aligning Front Drop links help!

hi got the second lot of drop links for my 95 import wrx, howqever these are the wrong parts aswell! these are whiteline adjustable drop links KLC38, however they dont adjust long enough to be like the standard ones i took off.

sending them back in the post today..

However had to take drop links off to check, and loosened the ARB to do this,
p155sed off that they didt fit, i then had to put the old ones back on, tried to get the ARB as much in the center by eye as poss (as it had slid over more to passenger side) and put them back on and tightened up. now itsa even moe clunky than before. how do you replace them correctly?

i will be getting new ones but dont know where to tget them from. for a 95 wrx import, and the solid and whitelines adjustables ive had both are too short. can anyone help?

you have been sent a set for a UK car with the plastic d/links & steel b/arms std, presumably you will have the alloy arms with the "wire" type links - best off personally simply buying new pukka links..........

I agree with above. I got a '96 WRX import with the wire type links, otherwise known as rose-jointed links I think, and a while ago I looked at getting some aftermarket uprated links, bought several makes one after the other & none fitted. Manufacturers just said that their uprated links fitted all models which is rubbish and every time I tried & they didn't.

In the end I just put new replacement links on, job done.
