Question forester suspension

i just bought a 2010 forester xt limited.

Welcome to the boards! Have you looked at sti pink springs for your stock shocks until you can find something else?

The suspension n current Foresters should be the same as '06-'08 WRX (not STi). I am pretty sure that the Forester hasn't gotten the Legacy/Impreza rear multilink setup yet.

New Foresters are multilink. Legacy after '01, Impreza after '07.
