4 inch lift
Is it just the pics or are those tires shot? Oh, and stop crying over the lack of posts, its a pretty new thread. It looks like a nice project, but not much else is going on yet. I'm in for the lift pics later.

First Gen legacy lifts- Please weigh in
LegacyBrad replied to Crawlerdan's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXIf the price is right and they are at least 1" I would by them for my Leggy. Sorry, but 1/2"- 7/8" is not enough to justify my purchase. I suppose 150 + shipping would be about right. Would be a nice combo to go with taller struts. Keep me updated. If you are really going to pull it off, I'm down.

I was really bored today so....
No joke, plus the bastards got a whole barn full! @ 1982gl4 Looks like the weight reduction gave you a bit of a lift too! I would bob the back end, lose those back seats and then cage it.

I think that is a great idea. I have a few run in mind, maybe this spring (after I get some new AT tires, lol). -Brad

Awesome Subaru Shirts For Sale
Really liked the shirts, but your website looks like it is from 2001 and the crappy, automatic music woke up my son Not cool. Also you checkout does not work, as stated above...

What up from Prescott! Nice sounding wagon.

Trash BRAT build
Wow, what a mess! That will be fun to sort out and teach the kid along the way. Also I think a brat with a reliable EJ would make a great car for a teenager.

Broken Key in Ignition
Buy a set of key extractors, shoot a bit of lube ( like wd40) in there and use the tools to pull it out. Instructions: Link: http://www.clksupplies.com/shop/product_info.php?cPath=197&products_id=1187 Good luck.

Friend wants to "give" me early '90s Legacy, do I want it?
LegacyBrad replied to Dogbone's topic in 1990 to Present Legacy, Impreza, Outback, Forester, Baja, WRX&WrxSTI, SVXIm a legacy fan boy, so of course I would say keep it. If anything why not tuneup and/or rebuild the 2.2 and put it in you other Subie. Its a fantastic motor imho.

What Have You Done to your Soobie lately? (Please post in here and keep it going)
The howling from the bad pump and the clacking of the cv in the corners of my 93 leggy was driving me f**king crazy, so, this last weekend: Passenger side front cv/half-shaft, new power steering pump, New exhaust piping, new muffler, replaced throttle body sensor. I can hear my stereo over the car now! Once I have all the broken stuff fixed (heater and window seals next) then its time for the OB strut lift and lighting upgrades

Can't gt axle nut off, tired of breaking tools...
So I have a quick question for the forum. Which way do I turn the nut to loosen it? After looking at the new one it would indicate that turning it left (loosey) would do this, but I can't get it to budge, even after soaking it with WD-40 for a day and using a 4 foot cheater bar! After really going at it I broke tool #2...oh well its a craftsman. New ones are free. I hate taking my stuff into shops, really want to get this done myself. Pic is of passenger side 93 legacy wagon. Still want this thing off...:-\

KYB GR2 struts good price?
What car do they go to in the first place? What the heck does "with off road suspension" even mean? Off road springs? If they look new (no leaks, no rust) and they fit your car why not get em? Thats about half the price of a new set.

The MurderWagon is getting a new heart (EG33 > 2000 Outback)
Wow, sweet project. Document as much as you can to help future subie heads down the road. What is the overall goal of the project? Are you just swapping in a bigger engine and then calling it good or ?

Polycarbonate or plexiglass
I would use windshield adhesive myself. Very strong adhesive. Just let is cure in the sun for the proper amount of time. http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3M/en_US/Marine/Home/Products/Catalog/?PC_7_RJH9U5230GE3E02LECIE20S4K7_nid=Z777MMR7KSbeQH8HT14PGTgl Also, this is a very good read and relative to you interests: http://distributionbizwiz.wordpress.com/2007/09/12/hints-for-replacing-sealing-acrylic-boat-windows/ Post pics!

Subtle 1" spacer lift...
Thanks for the help. Although there is a lot of info out there about the OB strut swap, its never really "spelled out" like it has been here. If I understand correctly, this is what I will do. Swap in the full OB strut/spring assembly in the front, then just the OB strut in the back with my leggy springs and I don't have to swap "hats" in the back? Seems like the easiest way to go about it. Thanks for all the help. I haven't been able to find those BFGS in 27X8.50R14, Superu, but I found it in the General Grabber AT2s. Tire looks pretty sweet. Might go with those eventually.

Subtle 1" spacer lift...
Thank you for the response. I will just be installing the springs and struts from an outback then (and rear top hats apparently). Next question. I mentioned before difficulty with finding tires in the right size. As far as I can figure out these are the sizes I am looking for, diameter and speedo off %: 225/70-14 26.4in 9.1% 215/75-14 26.7in 10.3% 205/80-14 26.9in 11.2% 215/80-14 27.5in 21.1% I would like to have the 215/80/14s (27.5"s) but I can't find that size anywhere (unless its for "trailer use only"). I am leaning towards the 225/70/14s (only 26s) as they have been a little easier to find, but I am worried about them being to wide and rubbing the strut? Should I worry about that with the lift? If there is a tire sizing combo that would work to give me 26-27' diameter that I haven't figured out let me know what and were! Not looking for swampers, light duty truck would be perfect. Thanks, I plan on doing a full build thread as this "gets off the ground."
