So I went to the junkyard today because , a while back I had an issue with the back right suspension was acuely bent inwards from a curb ( bent the wheel pretty badly ) so I replaced the wheels with new ones and come to found its still leaning inwards to a degree , I think I messed up quite a bit on the back right side. Point being I went to a local pick n pull and found a 96 420a gs eclipse and purchased the whole rear for cheap (car ended up there from a head gasket) the only thing different with the rear of the car that I pulled the subfram onto ,it was rotor and disc, I have the WHOLE rear end . if I'm correct everything I pulled off the car can be used on my 96 gs eclipse

I've not done this but I have a few questions that may help others help you.

Did you also get the parking brake cables from the donor car? It looks like this is one area where people have issues.

Both cars are 96 FWD 420a cars, right? If so I would expect the subframes to swap between the two.
I don't see people changing the master cylinder or proportioning valve in their swaps, so it looks you can live without but I'd check the part numbers and see if switching them would improve the braking balance.

Both are 420a cars , I'll look at the parts number , I picked the whole rear due to bent control arms and such on the back right, No i didnt get the parking brake cable , didnt think about that.

Subframe is my main problem , me and my buddy checked the back right were one of the arms gos to the subfram , I pushed back due to the curb upon impact. I'll take more pictures for those who ever have the same problem.
