Turbone Posted November 19, 2010 Share Posted November 19, 2010 Considering how rusted out it is, I would check before installing any lift hardware. If you plan on just lifting with tires, go for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
91 subaru Posted November 20, 2010 Author Share Posted November 20, 2010 thats the worst rust thats on it. The other side has some in that same spot but its not as bad. The entire car has rust around the wheel wells but that is the worst spot. I was thinkin i might just do a two inch lift Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
91 subaru Posted November 20, 2010 Author Share Posted November 20, 2010 I forgot to as turbone do you think i could fit the 235/75/15's on it with no lift? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suberstar88 Posted November 20, 2010 Share Posted November 20, 2010 Well, if u want to have zero fenders yes. But it looks like the rust has taken care of most that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
91 subaru Posted November 20, 2010 Author Share Posted November 20, 2010 it does have a lot of rust! I bought this car 7 years ago from a guy in moline illinois. I paid 550 for her and been drivin it every day since. I have put on brakes a/c belt spark plugs and a set of tires. I bout it with 97500 miles on it. she has 113000 on her now. The guy i bought it from had the tranny rebuilt new halfshafts and ball joints put on. the trans had 13000 on it when i bought it. I drove it 651 miles straight shot from iowa to oklahoma with no problem. Its probably the best car i have ever owned. its probably the last car ill buy for 500 bucks that will last as long as it has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WASHroad Posted November 21, 2010 Share Posted November 21, 2010 I really don't think AT tires are a goood off road tire, but hey if the price is right!! Ever hear of a tire grover?? You going to make your 2" lift? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
91 subaru Posted November 21, 2010 Author Share Posted November 21, 2010 I wont be doin much off roading. If i do it will be very light stuff. My dad builds lifts for what we call mini trucks. Ill have to add a pic for the idea of that. He is gonna help me build a lift. I cant decide if i want to do a 2 inch or a four inch. You can look at this site to get an idea of a mini truck that im talkin about. These arent the ones he builds. just the first website that popped up when i did the search. http://cajunminitrucks.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
91 subaru Posted November 21, 2010 Author Share Posted November 21, 2010 Oh and the price of the a/t's were 50 bucks for four of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoobieDoo Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 I'd go with the 4", if you want to run that size tire. Mine is a 4, with 215/75R15's, and I still had to do some minor trimming and bashing. Wheel offset is very important, also...get close to stock, and that should minimize trimming.
