So I left work tonight and as I turned from fruit valley rd to 4th plain I saw a lifted grey or light blue loyale wagon with a rack pulling into the Shell station R U on the board?

Look somethin' like this?!

I finished my rack and changed out all 4 springs today so the car looks a little different then it did the other day when you were over. Sits more than an inch taller and looks even taller yet with the monster basket up there.....

 

Good looking rig, Spencer! Eric told me about it last weekend so it was a kick to see a pic pop up here.

 

Aloha.

Your wagon is kickass

 

It was awesome riding in it. Would you be willing to take me and my buddy when he comes up with his Impreza?

Right on Spencer looks great. Let me know when your gonna be up at your shop if you wanna go out on them loggin roads Ill come out.

hey what did you do to get your suspension to get that much travel and sit that high?

"travel" is likely not any more than stock, because articulation is limited by the amount of travel the axles can provide.

 

For the lift it is as follows.....

Crossmembers-6"

Strut extensions- ~6.5"ish

RX springs in front add some, I'm guessing 1.5"ish

Honda accord front springs in rear add some also, guessing 1.5"-2"ish

 

Sooooo, I "think" my car is lifted in the 7"-8" range, but, I call it a 6" lift because thats what we built the blocks at, and I have no exact way to verify the amount of lift as of now. One day when it's a high priority I'll figure it out.

 

Also, theoretically (uh-oh big words) speaking the suspension geometry should be right at about 2" over stock, example: stock loyale with 2" strut lift.

 

Hope this helps, Spencer

Cool car, where did you get the front bumper?

want me to measure the stock height so you have a comparison?
