Subaru's instructions seem to be much more involved. Why would they require so much more disassembly to jack up the engine if it's possible to do with so little? Also some folks here started from "yeah, just a couple of bolts" and then changed to "emm, actually there's a bunch more stuff that I forgot about". Not trying to dis you or anything, actually very interested in the easiest approach to do this (past experience taught me the value of time saved with additional disassembly vs. trying to squeeze through with all the stuff around the work area).

And another stupid question (that was mentioned here already but wasn't answered as far as I can tell) - can you access the plugs from underneath? Or would the suspension components be in the way?
