Lift teaser

Used to be rwd. Switched everything back after blowing up a few rearends.

The blocks are from Primitive in OR. On top of the strut mounts front and rear. Im about at my limit for travel though. Any higher and i will need to stretch the steering shaft and start blocking under the subframes and driveshaft.

I just finished painting the wheels today, so pics will be up when i find some rocks to drive over

Yeah I was curious about that. Usually anymore than 2-2.5" of strut lift, and your axles really start to hate you. So I'm assuming you have 1" blocks? And the king springs are good for about an inch and a half, so you're right at the limit. It looks sweet. I can't wait to get my king springs installed on my new car......whenever it gets here.

 
Thanks Jason! What are you getting??

I might finally pull the trigger on a cobb ap, to try and recover some grunt lost from the big tires. Its not too numb, just rolling up hills at 50-60 it takes a while to spool.

My next project is making a sway bar disconnect for the front. I might just remove the rear all together, as it doesn't do much. The kings are stiffffffffff...

 
I'm getting another Subaru of course! I'm holding off saying what it is till it shows up here. Been waiting since October.

 
Ohhhhh .... Its a secret. Dang

For now i put the cross bars back on and put some rachet straps on over the tire. Baskets are cool, but heavy, and not as easy as they look when you are waist deep in water or high centered on a rock...

I think i can tuck the spare inside the tub still. I just need to take a hot knife to the foam under the floor. I wont be able to put the wingnut through it but its heavy as hell. Hopefully i cant just tuck it under the floor flush.

Gonna give it a bath tomorrow and take some pics!!

 
Baskets are light! I have 3 of them, and can pretty much pick them up with one finger! 

But isn't a lifted Forester nice?! I love mine.
