Looking good.
Hows the ride?

Nice yard, too.

Well, as good as a car that needs paint and TLC can look, lol! Thanks.

Ride quality is improved 5000% from before, when I had totally blown shocks. It's nice not bottoming out every time I find a bump!

I'll post the missing part #s once I find that invoice. It's around here somewheres.


lol - my yard is a mess. 2 acres of sagebrush, gravel, and projects

Follow up (of sorts) for anyone watching this thread.
Visual of required lift parts:

From top to bottom,
Rear subframe spacers
Front subrame spacers
Rear outrigger spacers
And on the outsides are the trailing arm brackets (with trailing arms that're identical length to stock)

Not pictured, but also required, are front control rear mounts and trans crossmember.
This can be installed with stock struts for a modest lift. Or, with forester or outback struts, for more lift.

Installed front spacers:

Rears before struts went on:

Difference in mounting height between stock and Forester struts:

Nice job! Looks like there's a couple parts there that I still need... I don't think I found the front subframe spacers.

Should be good enough until I finally get my garage up. Then I can see about finding the other parts and installing them. Hate having other people work on my cars.

Hi,
Did your intermediate shaft/knuckle (?) - from the rack to the steering colum- still fit w/the spacers?



Td

It did thus far. We didn't have the trans crossmember, so the engine/trans wasn't lowered all the way. I suspect it will be needed once the outback trans crossmember is installed.
