Default drop links please help!!!

hello everyone my drop links have worn at the front and the rear. I took it to prosport the other day but they dont know what type they are. they said every thing down there is uprated so my questions are:

1) should the whiteline drop links fit?

2) if so does it matter which ones I get i.e alloy or wire?

3) and finally are they hard for a complete novice to replace?

Thanks Andy .

1. I think there are whiteline drop links to fit all most all impreza's but telling us which model your car is would help

2. Dunno about that, I got the wire ones and am very happy with them maybe someone else can comment

3. Depends how much of a novice you are :P if all goes well. ie, bolts arent seized or that then its a piece of ****. Get a second jack to put under your hub to help you align everything up rather than struggle

depends what car you have as you forgot to give us that crucial bit of information.

if your car has alloy front arms the standard drop links are more than capable of doing the job

as for the back you wont go wrong with whiteline alloy or wire drop links.

these are the ones you want for the front if your car has alloy arms.

Mine is a UK 98 car, and has wire ones front and rear. I've been happy with them.
