Redmanstl Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Hello to all, super stoked about finally getting a Bru. Found some 04 forester struts and springs for her all ready. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdventureSubaru Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Welcome! Lifted Imprezas make very capable little rigs. Used to have the same setup with a green OBS that I lifted. Someday I may get back into one and do a full dual range swap. But with standard AWD I forded rivers, desert sand and mountain trails no problem. Only time I nearly got stuck was in a muddy field, but some more aggressively treaded tires would have fixed that issue as well. If you haven't read it yet there's a "How to lift your impreza" sticky in the off road section with lots of good info. Most notably the small adjustment for drilling tophats/adding strut top spacers in the rear so no clanking. And 2 - if you don't have them, get a set of trailing arm brackets from a 96-99 Legacy outback to keep your rear wheels centered in the wheel well. After that you can clear 28 inch tires with a little trimming. And... post up some pics of the process! These cars look great lifted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
