• Upgrade to XenForo 2.2.15 has completed

Forry goes wild, live from Germany

A half year ago i was buying a 99er Forester in a very goog condition only a little bit rust in left wheelhousing.

The last few days i cut off the Rust to rebuilt the Wheelhousing in the next week.

I copy with Waterjet the Sumo lift kit but for rear 40mm and 35mm for the Front.

Aktually I am waiting for the Ironman 35mm liftsprings for Front and rear.

The original 15" Rims i rebuilt today, at the moment the Brunox Epoxy Rustpreserver is drying, and tomorrow they gos mattblack.

Ok, i think with 6cm Traillingarm Spacers i can middle the Wheel perfectly.
 
Ok, but the Wheel is with 1,5cm Distance to the Front.
 
If you go lower, it won't change much but will be more vulnerable (rocks…)
 
No, lower is only a Compromis, this is the Maximum.
And if i kill my Setup, will make it better in the second Run.
 
Little Update

Yesterday i mount the 6 cm Trailling Arm Spacers, the Wheel is exactly in the Middle,
only the Chamber is still much to negativ, bevor i mount the Spacers the Chamber was -8° now its rd. 5-6° negativ.

If i i'll have some Time today i'll make longer the Tranverse controll Arm's in the rear.

Biggest Problem, the Spring is much to tight to the Body, but it and the Chamber will change after longering the Arm's.

I am quite interested in this modification TheGerman as my rear springs rub slightly due to my lift.
How much did you extend the rear control arms by? From what you have written I think it is 21mm but it is not entirely clear.
Did you extend the axles at all? If you are using the standard axles how are the CV Joints on the axles coping with the extra extension?
