  1. Amazing! You took both my cars and made them have a child! I just have the 529s on 35s on the runner. no dual stick yet however lockers are goin in after the impreza sells. thanks so much for sharing and taking on this build. those are the rock armor axles? super sweet man.
  2. I thought my clutch went out fast, 3 days of tightening the clutch cable and losing reverse.... I knew the original clutch was going to go soon yet did not think it would go so abruptly. I bought a new clutch and had my mechanic go to it. He found that the clutch was worn "almost to the red ribbon" and replaced it with the bearing. the fork had cracked and then progressively bent making the clutch inoperable... new fork installed. I took her on a snow boat float through the mountain back roads, you know to settle in the clutch a bit... I was pleased with the performance of the new clutch.
  3. New clutch going in after Christmas! Im also going to: reseal the taillights install new brake pads turn rotors
  4. a nice woman is looking at fern. we drove her to the park and this is what we found.
  5. Need money to make my new car more reliable…... fern is back up for sale.. I unfortunatly have no garage and only street parking. I don't like having two cars its too much for me personally. I hope she goes to someone who will keep her nice and still moderatly wheel her….she likes that. Washed all the mud off..
  6. Keepin her shes not gonna be wheeled anymore... shes getting the 2.2 this month. she will be my long distance car. updates on swap to come...
  7. Fern is up for sale. She has been great to me. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/146894-lifted-impreza-done-rite/
  8. Found a mud hole today yet it was dry. I'm glad to now know its location. Looked around a bit.... lifted a wheel a few times on some new found trails. check that approach angle! Was a good short outing.
  9. It snowed here one time only. I live in the mountains at 3200 ft.! No snow. My studded tires are still on. My 27.7" Km2s are waiting for a set of steel wheels on thier way. It will be nice to save money and time next year when I do not need to swap tires. The mag 5 stars are now winter/street only. Wheeling last summer they were shaved a bit on some on rocks moving me toward the smarter steel option.
  10. "this stuff is cool to and im havin fun it keeps my mind workin and gives me somethin to do" im glad to read this. keep workin and keep on experimenting. thanks for sharing and please be safe...... theres way worse things an active mind can keep busy doing. my subaru eases and chalanges my "minor OCD". I enjoy it. It's nice to see yours does the same for you. i think metal windows would be so cool! 8)
  11. My bud Jared at the tire shop will straighten this out!
  12. Went out front this morning, surprisingly I noticed that I'm now up there with stock yotas!
  13. Yeah I think I'm going to put the studs back on these wheels. Then through the winter save for some steel forester wheels and put my km2s on them. left my rubber strut top flaps rolled back so the lift can peek out..
  14. I like the personality of this car as it starts to gain more and more mods. that bumper is ready for some serious brush! Super sweet 2 winches!
  15. Thanks guys. Part of the joy of my tinkering is to share the journey. I've customized a few cars in the past and I've been a part of a few car forums. This little corner in "Subaru Motorsports" is one of the most fun and unique digital garages I've been in. next on the list is full alignment. then I would like to get the sliders over those rear carriers done before it starts to get really cold! I still have my studded tires, I think I'm going to try this year without them... we will see how she does when the snow comes. they keep telling me it's so cold here that the roads are usually packed powder. last 2 seasons here have been warm so melted snow in the day became ice overnite.8/
  16. struts and spacers on Just enough to clear my 28s.
