lift

not sure which spring I should get as I have a bit of a frankenstein car haha Car is a 2008 WRX Hatchback with Koni yellows for the '08 wrx but the front strut housing is from an '09 Forester. Would it be best to get the '08 WRX specific King "Lift" springs from primitive racing in USA or...

I have a 2003 XS Forester. I'm currently looking to get new tyres - moving from stock 215/60R16 tyres to Bridgestone Dueler D697 215/65R16 tyres. I am investigating the benefits of a lift - and wondered before I buy these tyres - if I had a lift as well, if this would mean that bigger tyres...

Hey guys, I've been lurking here for a while and finally had a question I felt necessary to ask: I ordered the Sumo 2" lift kit and trailing arm spacers a little over 2 weeks ago. Immediately after placing my order, I sent an e-mail asking about the typical turnaround time on these orders...

Today I got the phone call I've been waiting for, original SG struts have been modified to fit new koni inserts, standard height king springs had arrived and everything was ready for me to pick up. Unfortunately the shock travel is still the same as no longer travel konis exist that will...

Hi guys... After sifting through the forums for a while, I couldn't find the answer I was looking for. I have an 07 Forester with 1" springs and 2" body lift, and popped on some bigger tyres as well. After about 6 months like this, the handling feels a lot looser and top-heavy...making...

This came up in a threadjack elsewhere... Why do I want to do this? What car can I do this on? What are lateral arms? Pics?

G’day guys. I am doing some research into a 2” lift on my 97 SF Forester and have a few queries. I think i will be going with: KBY struts: Excel G twin tube gas shock [F- 3341 89/90 R- 3341 91/92] King Springs (Aus): HD 30mm Rise [F- KSFR-32 R- KSRR-33 (req KBY 334191/2 struts on rear)]...

After searching throughout OK I finally found someone in Oklahoma City that will work on my Forester. Mike from Spartan Motorsports, www.spartan-motorsports.com will be installing a 1' Subtle lift, Subtle skid plate, and equipping me with some oversized BFG's (215/70/16) in a couple of weeks...

Has anyone noticed a reduction in caster after fitting lift blocks? Is this something that should be corrected for along with camber? I realise that the A arm swings down in an arc so camber would be affected more but surely adding ~7% height between where the top mounts and the bottom connects...

Just wondering if anyone has tires that stick out the fenders on any Foresters, I have a 98 Forster and was wondering if this is do-able. I don't mind fender trimming, Any help would be great thanks!! If you do please attach pictures! Thanks again!

Hey guys, my name is Jamie, and this is my Justy build. Photoshop provided by DrakeHale33 of RS25.com :) Ever since I have been into Subaru’s I have wanted a 4x4 Justy. Last Christmas my wife gave me Rusty :) She bought him off of her Brother’s roommate for $500. Included in the sale...

Hi guys, I'm looking at installing around 2" of lift and was considering 1" subtle strut top blocks and kings or dobinsons. After seeing the positive camber on a 2" lifted SF and the uneven tyre wear I think I might need to give the subtle blocks a miss and get some with camber correction...

So we returned once more to GreenRidge State Forest in Western Maryland. Did a little spring camping with a bunch of friends. When we got there we instantly got some bad news. The ORV trail is closed due to flooding and endangered plants! They are going to be relocating the trail in the next...

G'day guys, I own a gen2 03 Outback I have been planning on lifting it with a 2" body lift to get some bigger all terrain tires, maybe some 215/70 or 225/70 if i can fit them. I am a bit tight on money but I have also been looking at getting the lifted King Springs. My question is can i...

Hey guys, I just got myself another 97' Outback and am wanting to build some lift spacers for it. I have them all designed in AutoCAD and Solidworks and have templates made from MDF so I know they'll fit but I am just wondering about materials. I want it to be a 1" thick piece of plastic-like...

I recently purchased my first AWD - 2001 subaru forester limited edition model manual. The man i purchased it off had fitted it with side steps and i am doing my first offroad trip to moreton island soon and i am worried if these sidesteps will be a big problem? Would it be smarter to take them...
