All things considered its interesting how litle modification he's actualy done. While alot of it looks pretty complicated to do and out of my legue, He's done what looks like a custom double wishbone conversion on the front and modified the engine cross member and just constructed the the larger rear strut to fit.

Thought im not sure entirely, the double wishbone looks odd as i've never seen it done attatched to the top of the hub like that, but that may just be because of the cv joint for the front wheels, it's easier to ue a strut for awd in that regard i guess.

EIDIT: Looks like the made custom rear linkages as well

That's pretty rad. I'd love to have a long travel subie wagon. I'd prefer a larger 05 Outback, but that's just me.

If you're not familiar, Google the Bajabaru. That's a pretty crazy side project being done by one of the guys from TSS Fab.
