front suspension arms lower turbo same as reg-i wrecked, pic

[Bheinen74]

Are the front lower suspension arms on a Turbo 94 wagon same as all other 92-94 wagons, or are the Turbo wagon arms different. I need to find out cause i ruined my suspension arms, as well as a host of other shit when my car went over some rebar at a construction site. I blew a tire and jerked the wheel, launching right into a whole BUNCH of heavy rebar. My airbag even went off. I am in Denver and could use some help. The lower radiator frame support took the brunt of it, and will have to cut it out/or pull it back down with a frame puller, but i don't make a lot of money so i could use some insight. Also need an oil pan, and radiator fr turbo wag, I might see if my radiator can be repaired, but definitely have to get the lower frame out so i can remount a radiator. The suspension arms look easy to replace -????

get on www.carpart.com and enter what you need, then contact a few vendors. If you get Impreza GC parts, they will fit and you can find low mileage examples. If I were you I'd get the control arms, with rear bushings and mounts attached, and the ball joints as well

you'll have to check your struts for bends, if you jammed everything back they could have taken punishment as well. The tie rods should be fine but make sure they look straight and you could have riped boots off over that mess.

oh, and regular wagon arms = turbo wagon arms = gc impreza arms = legacy sedan arms

what won't fit is later (after '94) legacy arms, or outback arms, or after 2002 impeza arms, or wrx parts

I am going to go and try make a deal tomorrow. I found out where Matt Monsons old turbo shell went to, and they still have it. It had the stuff i need (hopefully in good shape), so I am going to go check things out tomorrow, and try and get a terrific deal on everything i need.
I will get some pictures of the re-bar piles i launched into soon and post them here.

Both end links broke in the front, and that is why the lower control arms are bent back. I drove it with them borke and they most likely got pushed back more because of driving it. I THINK the shocks/struts are okay, although it is tilted back a little, but looks to be straight. My concern will be the radiator lower support. Matts car was the same color, so if I can get that part too, then maybe someone around Denver will be nice enough and weld it in for me. I think i can drill out the welds on the current piece to get it out. I know how to weld, but don't have a welder and don't know anyone here who does either.
Also, I am going to need 1 replacement 5 spokewheel (94 turbo) or a set of 4 WRX or GT wheels if cheap.
The bumper is mostly okay except the lower lip, i can repair that good enough. The grill, hood, lights, all good. I tore up a little bit of the driver fender cause the tire came off the wheel, but it is straight except where the mudflap goes.
This was my FIRST accident ever. I am 31. I attribute the blown tire that caused this due to the fact i SUPERGLUED the outer wall of the tire where it had a little slice from a curbcheck. Guess i won't trust superglue on a tire in the future.
I am still pissed at this whole situation.

How the fuck did you hit a bunch of rebar bundles?

reason I wrecked, cause a blew a front tire.

This weekend I got most of the stuff back on, and the car drives now. I did all the work myself.
Both front suspension control arms replaced
Both motor mounts replaced
both endlinks replaced
put on 4 WRX wheels
used radiator in (had to pull the lower frame out with a come-a-long)
new lower radiator hose
got the hood to close without a 6 inch gap-again, pulled the stuff in myself-it opens and closes fine.
used oil pan put on
grille put back on, but has a couple broken retainer clips

now I need to replace the back passenger rear door, and replace the front driver fender- i wish i could straightern it out better. But the car is driveable now, it even drives straight and the steering wheel is still centered. Will check tire wears soon, but think it might be okay as is. Car didn't want to run at first, and I checked over and found that there was a vacuum hose knocked loose and also the main intake tube was jarred loose.

still need an airbag too. but I am BROKE now.
