Are Bilsteins in BP Outbacks the same length/height as BP Legacy's (both 04-05)

[dumbskate]

Just looking at upgrading the worn out struts and springs in my 04 BP Legacy. Found some Bilstein's out of a 2005 JDM Outback and wondering if these will be the same as using Bilstein's from a B-spec or similar? I know that most of the raised ride height in the Outbacks comes from riser blocks between the chassis and body but are the shocks any different?

pretty sure they are longer overall

Check with a dealer for part #'s. Which will be the easiest way to check

Thought that might be the case. In case anyone has dealer info on these the part number for one end is apparently 20310A6150 but I suspect its more likely 20310AG150 as this seems inline with overseas forums.

Still haven't found any help with this from the dealer or wrecker.

Does anyone have access to Bilstein or Subaru dealer part information?

Info I have is:

They are light blue Bilsteins taken from a import 2005 outback. Rear# are EB5-0704084 Front #are EB5 0704084 The other # pressed into the front are 05021 A393 20310AG140

Any help really appreciated.

Yeah apparently these are for legacy's but were in a slightly lowered outback (possible from the struts themselves). I have found a little more info and they seem to be a standard part for the JDM legacy GT tuned for 18's. Might make my 17's look a little funny but that me be the next thing to go anyway.

Light blue biltstein's was a new one on me.
