I know the flanges are totally different, just like VW flanges.

Any pics?

See thats what i dont get....yet. The rear suspension of the buggyroo flexed about 13" and i never had a problem. Was i just lucky in the time i had it not to break and axle? Or was it from the reduced weight i didnt have a problem? I guess for right now im big on getting a subaru to flex as much as it can. But then again i havent put more than 2k miles on one to see any longterm effects.

Easy enough. This car also has the mechanical fan. Is there any concern with the fan after the motor is lowed however many inches?
-
Ive read about all the things i need to look out for when lifting an EA82. I cant seem to find out if there is going to be any problem with the AC on my car once its lifted? I thought i read that some time back. Thanks.

I ran Air Shocks from NAPA (80.00 per pair) on the back of the buggyroo. There is no reason you couldnt find the right pair to put on the back of your brat/brumby. Ive been toying with the idea of running Fox Air Shocks on the back of the Sedan once its lifted. http://www.offroad-engineering.com/fox-shocks-2-0-fox-air-shocks.html Granted you will spend 500 bucks new but that thing would flex like madddddd. Long travel air struts would be bad$$ in the front. I want to do it. Orion -
Scott, your the man. Thanks Orion
-
Sweet thanks!
-
Thats a possibility if i cant fix the issue. Any idea how much 2 strut tower blocks are? His website is blocked at work.

Ive heard of a few people stating that the 4" AA lift produces camber issues. I havent heard it for the SJR lifts. No bit deal, i just want to starighten them out if possible. I dont really like increasing tire wear on 500 bucks in tires.
-
Im about to buy a used 4" AA lift. I was wondering how people have fixed the camber issues this lift kit produces. It seems to me if i hack the strut spacers shift them over x amount of inches it should fix the problem. I know people have done it and it worked fine. I guess im trying to get a # in inches to shift the parts then reweld. Thanks Orion

Its not dangerous....just do it and post some pics.

Do you have any pics of the ranger trans and tcase stuffed under there? Why did you keep the trans on it? Just for the crawl ratio? Ive always wanted to do this. Your crawl ratio is sick.
-
The sedan is a 5 speed DR. Lift and tires in the future and ill get some more pics up then. My friend(who bought the buggyroo) and i are going to check out that place on the 4th for sure.
-
The sedan isnt lifted yet but it could be an intersting time. Go there and show them what subarus can handle. Granted we arent on 47" tires but there are all kinds of things to play on. Orion http://www.colorado4x4.org/vbb/showthread.php?t=131441

Anyone? Could be the next best thing for a super flexy font suspension.

That could be in then. I was messing with all that stuff the other day installing the ignition. -

good point, ill check that out. will the radio still work if the antenna cable just popped out of the antenna? -
Are the tires in the above pics on the blueish grey hatch the 27x9.50 SSR's ? Thanks.
-
