Best lifts????
So Far I have been pleased with my AA 4"lift kit http://alliedarmament.homestead.com/ everything bolted up well,,, and the welded one piece strut mounts are sturdy. and the price was best. just make sure when you decide,, to specify what kind of steering and what kind of transmission you have ie: ( power , 3/4 rack and pinnon or regular manual steering)

1987 AMC Eagle vs 1978 Subaru Brat
Eagles rock,,, however, having observed them in action,,, there a bit of a suspension issue,, ive seen em bust shocks and roll However my lifted subee with the big tires kinda makes me feel like i am going to break something on the next pothole i hit. would definatly stick with a light tire and rim for the subee, as well. if your going baja.

steering extension question
Automatic or manual transmission???? mine , with 4" lift ,manuel steering, automatic transmision , needed to be... 14-5/8ths 3” lift might need to be shorter And with a manual transmission you might need it to be longer due to the position of the transmission mounts. Also, from what Ive seen,,, the "flats" ( like the U joints) on the rack and on the steering colom should be at an 45 degree off-set from each other,,, So…….. I think the idea of cuting it first and then lifting it, might be the best most acurite way of getting the correct lenth.

Smelly Loyal
Check the rubber gromets, or "Drain plugs" under the rear seat and under the floorboards, see if their all thare. I found one missing under the back seat in my subee.

ORV poll
Is it my imagination or,, did MSNBC just change the wording on the poll? "Do you agree with the regulation to restrict off-road vehicles to certain parts of national forests?"

ORV poll
I sent this letter to MSNBC. Dear Sir or Miss Your online poll, - http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9900937/ - is very partisan. Or it reflects a very lax attitude on the research of the subject. In the poll, you only provide basically two viewpoints or options. 1, No allowance of ATV’s in National Forests no allowance at all. 2, Total allowance of ATV’s in National Forests. Limiting on line poller to this "Narrow" option displays possibly a "hidden agenda" on the part of the poll-provider or very "limited research" in the matter. A more balanced and informed view would be shown by the inclusion of a third option. 3 Should all-terrain vehicles and motorized bikes be allowed limited access to national parks and forests, on specified and controlled "off-road" trails? The inclusion of this third option would display a more "Informed" view. Which I would conclude that a source of news such as MSNBC should be! Thank You, David, P.
