  1. I have a 2001 outback 3L VDC and i want to put a 4 inch lift on it but can't seem to find any kits for it, does anyone have any suggestions?

     

    If you want 4 inches, i would look into King Springs. They have a 1" and possibly 2" lift spring kit. Then the rest you could lift with strut top blocks.

  2. I have replaced both front axles recently and I know they are at a bad angle because of my lift but i don't think the noise is coming from them (sound still there right after changing them). It's by the front drivers side wheel and I just had to clamp down my axle boot (original clamp came off from Browns Camp). The noise has been happening for a while, its just gotten quieter. You can hear it at about 5-10mph then it goes away. I am completely boggled.

    Help me out!

  3. To whoever is in charge of picking a spot why don't you check out the Fair grounds in Republic, WA. Beautiful area in the summer, a short drive to 4 wheeling and probably fairly cheap to rent. The real upside is I might actually be able to finally make it this year.

     

    That's at least an 8 hour drive for us Oregonians. Somewhere neutral, maybe Seattle area or something would be nice. I was up in Carnation and they probably have stuff around there.

  4. The clutch in my BRAT needs to be replaced. I was quoted 575 by a Subaru mechanic here in Portland. That seems high considering the kits only cost 100-120. Does anyone know of a good mechanic who will charge less in the Portland area?:(

     

    Go to General Disorder's, he knows what he is doing. That's where I get all my work done at.

  5. Well seems like you have a lot to do Aaron. Depending on what ej25 parts you have, I may need some for my franken motor if I can get around to doing it.

    I get paid on friday so I'll be ordering my lights after that if you are still willing to do that welding.

  6. I went on some telephone line service trails with a buddy of mine.

    Then we headed up the hills of the gorge to get some snow. And we found plenty of it.

    Thank god I bought a 3/16" skid plate from Primitive. My buddy was not so lucky and lost his brand new franken motor.

  7. Hey Greg, I'm pretty much a neighbor to you (I'm in Sherwood).

     

    I would love to see the hatch sometime and check out some of your wheelin' places! My Forester is wanting some mud really bad.

  8. So my Forester doesn't have an EGR and it won't pass emissions because its throwing a P0401 code. :banghead:

    The really crapper thing is that the engine doesn't have the port for the EGR either. Do get one, it would take about $600 worth of work since it is far past my mechanical skills.

    My friend at work suggested resisters but General Disorder said that probably wouldn't work.

    Does anyone know any tricks so i can pass DEQ? As a last resort, I will register it to be a primary car at a place where DEQ is not required but that could come back to bite me.

  9. My foz is being really weird at the gas station. Here in Oregon, they fill up your gas for you. Everytime they pull the handle, less than half of a gallon later, the pump stops. It may run for a gallon or two but then it will shut off again. I do not know what would be making the gas splash up and hit the nozzle.

    Any help would be appreciated.

     

    Thanks,

    Garrett

     

    Edit: This has happened at two gas stations now...
