October 12, 201015 yr UPS droped it off today. I was exspecting a huge box unloaded with a forklift. Just a little box, but packed full of the good stuff. DVD was cool I just need to get time to slap it in. I need in put on the shift linkage how is that done?
October 13, 201015 yr Very nice! That's a great kit...and even better now that the strut blocks have captive nuts. The linkage just needs a little lift also. Unbolt the plate under the car with the rubber cushion on it, and play with that for a while. Post#70: http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/showthread.php?t=95517&highlight=trail+wagon&page=7
October 16, 201015 yr I just got mine as well I left the rubber block and plate alone and only had to weld a plate onto the 4wd shifter arm to augment the position.. Other wise no FWD! all is well on mine except the lh front mudflap is stuck on and i need it off to not rub!.. Took it on the trail anyhow... nary a problem! the ruts that I dreaded before are no more..
October 26, 201015 yr Author Started the lift instal. Coverd all parts with Masterseries anti rust stuff. I thought for some reason the SJR lift centerd the rear wheel. Guess I'm wrong. The lift looks huge compared to the two inch it had. For now Just the rear, I'll start on the front. I was just a little freaked out cutting the pad on the passenger side next to the gas lines.
October 29, 201015 yr Author Finished the install. The ride is great! nothing was complicated. I used two floor jacks. On the shift linkage I cut a small block of 1" tube drilled two offset holes and bolted to where the plate was then bolted the plate to the block. I had to bend the Hi/lo lever a shot, so it wouldn't hit the console when not locked. I love it!!
October 30, 201015 yr It looks Great! I love the two tone or, is that camo graphics on the top? Hmm. Maybe is just a reflection of the trees above. DId you ever figure out what those two extra bolts that came with our lifts are for?
October 30, 201015 yr Author The paint job is bed liner and rustoleum camo spray bombs. I had 6 or 4 bolts left, No idea what they were for.
November 2, 201015 yr Author Thanks man, This is how it looked when I got it. This was as I was installing the 2" lift. It had the baby 13" spoked rims and low.
