Default How do i do a simple lift? on a 97 OB

Is a true that 04 FORESTOR complete struts would bolt up to my 97 outback wagon? and how much lift would it get me?

Please search. This has been covered many times.

Outback owners with Forester struts do it again?
New Struts/Springs or Spacers

among others.

Also: more rust than I care to think about.

I'm designing strut spacers for my 97' Outback. 1" of lift with factory suspension components and factory ride but increased clearance. If you're interested shoot me a PM and I'll keep you updated as to when I get them. The fronts are all done just need to do the rears.
