Rear suspension on a wagon different?
Got a set of Eibachs on the weekend, and fitted, well tried to fit them today. Fronts went on fine - no squeeks/knocks. Rears however, are alot different. 
The springs seem to be narrower on the top & bottom. it doesn't sit in the strut right and the top hat doesn't fit either
I got them from a bloke off ebay who advertised them as being removed from a wagon classic.

Fella on ebay said they were removed from a classic wagon... I paid cash on collection. They are nowhere near the same really - bit *****d to say the least

reason I ask is I know the classic impreza front struts fit the legacy but the rears are different for the legacy wagon. Could it be that seller meant they were from a classic legacy and doesn't know the difference between that and an impreza? might be worth double checking with the seller if possible?
