Shocks for 04-05

When are they going to make shocks/struts for the 04-05 wrx's?

You can use KYB's that were for '02-'03. Simply need a stack of washers 14mm ID 20mm OD and 5mm thick stack. Slide these down over the threaded end of the strut. They will stop on the 1st shoulder of the rod. Put the tophats on and they will NOW pinch down the springs ~ Only diffrence is the OEM '04-'05 struts have the threaded area running a little further down the strut rod.

Otherwise your struts will be worthless by the time the suppliers climb on board!
