January 31, 201016 yr Put me down for one too, I've been looking for someone to make a good lift for the gen 1's yours look fantastic. Im in no hurry though. Let me know when you are ready.
February 9, 201016 yr Author I will be making another run of these very soon, Im just trying to get some other things out of the way and tie up some loose ends. I'll let everyone know when I have the next run ready -Bill
February 12, 201016 yr I have my lift for sale if anyone is interested. I was unable to complete my brat due to smog issues in this horrible state of california. So my Brat and everything has to go...First come first serve, $300 Shipped to continental US.
February 25, 201016 yr hey i was wondering when you might make some more lifts i am ready to buy any time thanks
March 21, 201016 yr im interested in purchasing a lift kit, I have a 1981 Subaru Brat that i just bought and would like to lift.
March 21, 201016 yr Hey Bill I want to buy a lift kit. I'm interested in the 4" or 6" lift kit. What's the price for each size?
March 21, 201016 yr Author 4" lift will be $350, 6" will be $450, Grade 8 USS hardware included, you will have to source 2 M12x1.25x30mm metric bolts to replace the 2 long bolts that hold up the front of the rear diff, but all the other stock bolts can be re-used. Shipping on the 6" kit is $70, I havent gotten a quote on a 6" yet. -Bill
March 21, 201016 yr Author With everything you make you think you would do up some beefy skidplates also. Well, I dont have the Hydraulic plate-break running yet, none of the tractors we have are operable right now, and thats the hydraulic supply for the press... Hey Bill do you have any built I dont have any on the shelf ATM, it will be a month or more before I get back to making Gen 1 stuff... Maybe sooner, depending how things are going. -Bill
March 21, 201016 yr Ok, Im really interested in the 4" lift, but if i decide on the 6" what modifications would I have to do? Please let me know as soon as you have some built. Ill be checking the board. Thanks
March 21, 201016 yr Author 6" lift would require the same mods as for the 4", just done to fit the bigger lift. New radiator hoses, new heater hoses, prolly some new vacuum lines, lengthen the steering link, new brake hoses, and modify the shifters and exhaust. I will have pics of how I modified my shifters and steering link soon for the 4" lift. -Bill
March 23, 201016 yr i just got my kit and thank you!!! nice attention to detail very well made , i am happy! well worth the money -nick
September 11, 201015 yr OK, I started the Lift, (GONA BE FREAKING SWEET BTW!) I am looking to see if anyone found the rear brake lines yet. The existing rear lines are 12" Long, Need to get lines that are 16" long or so.
September 12, 201015 yr Ok, Napa part number 36725 its for an Opel.... its about 17" long compared to the stock length of 12" or so. I will have my hoses in on Friday and will confirm that they fit. Then to the shocks..... Confirmed! They Fit perfectly, requires NO bending of the existing tubing.... -Daniel Edited October 12, 201015 yr by danrenfroe2016 cause

September 13, 201015 yr Im new here & have been looking for a kit like this for about 3 years now. Great for my 79 brat. Anyway i can get 1?
October 12, 201015 yr Bill, Thanks for the Excellent Kit. Worked great, Almost done with the Brat.... OK one big favor to ask, Can you post pictures of your modification to the Steering Linkage??????? I have a few ideas... But I think i need to ask the master... -Daniel
November 8, 201015 yr I'm working on a 1981 Brat gl and would like to lift it. Looks like you do a great job on the lifts, but my problem is I live in WV and I can only list it 3 inches and keep it road legal. Do you think you might do any 3 inch kits, and if not, could you sell me some plans for making them? I can make my own I'm pretty handy at fabricating myself, and I was thinking of trying it anyway, but it would be nice to bypass unforeseen mistakes, and since you've already done it, you know what to look for. Everything looks easy except the strut tower and rear tube mount.
