Sorry I've been holding out, I wasn't gonna post any pics until I had it kinda complete, but I was talked into it by a friend. (You know who you are:) ) Its all right though, I needed to get this out there. As far as I know - this is the first lifted subaru in Nevada. I could be wrong, but I couldn't find any other documentration, so I'm throwin it out there. Ozified - how many kits have you sold up here to Nevada? Anyway, here goes:

 

Before Shot:

 

 

OK with 4" BYB Lift Kit:

 

 

Here's a Pic of the tire I used: Its a Super Swamper TSL 28x8.5 mounted on 14" Chrome 6 lug wheels. You can see the stock tire holding it up there.

 

 

Thanks to all who helped me - Jeremy, Brian, Shawn, Scott - I appreciate all the help you've given me in this project.

And here's pics of Our First Run:

 

Leaving the Yard:

 

 

Here I am in a small Creek bed:

 

 

 

 

 

This is where we wheel at, it's right out in our backyards literally:

 

 

And here's the difference in a 4" lifted Brat and a stock 84 wagon:

Thanks guys for the support. Hope you enjoy these pics.

Bah, send it to the wrecker and get a Ford.

Just kidding of course. Looks SWEET on chrome rims.

 

 

 

So if high-performance stickers are worth 50-60 hp, a dog in the back must mean an extra 10 inches of flex, right?

You must have had experience with the before and after pictures for those diet plan commercials. Looks great.

It's Still lacking something......????

 

Oh I know ......A set of Nice Tube bumpers.......

 

Looks Good.....It Always amazes me what a set of good tires and Sexy rims will do for a Ride........

Yeah, mudrat, bumpers are next. The front bumper on this one is held on by wire on the passenger side, so I definitely need a bumper.

Very nice start. I will suggest that you trim the bottom of the front fenders though. Look through the Hatch Patrol website and you'll get the idea what needs to be cut. It will save the buckling effects of hitting the bottom of the fender on obsticles.

Yeah it looks kinda funny, huh? Should I do it to the rear as well? The rear is way rusty at the same area as I see in the fronts.

There isn't as much benefit for the rear. If there is significant rust "Bobbing" might be an alternative. There are some pics Of "Bob" the Brat on the site as well.

That sucker looks sharp! Nice choice in wheels as well. Beautiful pictures, I grabbed the one of it against the big background for my wall paper. Awesome.

 

 

Get any inspiration from the vids?

Great Pics! That Truck looks Sweet!

The pics look like what we call the "West Desert"?

 

A locker might help a bit in those washes

Might want to talk to "Abe" about one

That's my favorite Pic as well! Too much inspiration from the vids!! It all actually started when I first saw subarubrats lifted Brat, I was hooked, and how I found here.

Thats one sick Brat man; love the color. Those tires are way nice too.... so key to have nice tires like that. Wish I could wheel in my back yard like that!

Pictures © by Subieman!!!! haha yeah we do live in one beautiful place and his brat is going to explore every acre of it! Lifting the brat was quite an experience and I can't wait to lift a subaru of my own!

Sweet! Im glad you decided to post pictures of it. I didnt spend all that time helping just to remain quiet

These pix make me wanna do some more off-roading.... now, if i could only find a brat of my own
