Thanks, it was my girlfreinds birthday present to me :) She did 90% of the fabrication work and we designed it together.

So far on the local trails in unstoppable and it still has open diffs!

Dude I would do anything short of jumping it. I live in east greenwich, about 20 minutes from the CT boarder. I'm down for some fun in the dirt anytime.

Only good under pics are the ones you see when it's in the air. :)

Just useing a 5mt with a Samari T-case (only non Subaru part on the car).

Only had it out in the woods twice, gave it a good beating today becouse my girlfreind was following me in a V8 fully locked Jeep on 38" boggers, and she had a hell of a time following me through the trails. :)

OMG! That wagon is beautiful, i wouldn,t allow you to follow me through the trails i take the wagon through.

On the other hand if your up for some rally style dirt road action then i can take out the SS for that. :)

P.S. my girl offered to jack up your wagon ;)

haha, nice. I got nothing against jumping, sliding, and small rock hopping in my SS but i wouldn't even be able to get 50' into this trail without ripping my exaust off.

Um I'll pass on the jacking up part lol. I checked on google maps, your not far from me at all. We should plan a Sunday all day play in the dirt day. There is litterally no where to drive my wagon around here that isn't paved. I hate RI!

That spot looks familiar. Is there a cell tower there?

If your asking me then no. That is over in coventry RI where the only place you could drive offroad was purchased and they are building say around 10,000 condos or so.

welded center diff huh.
stock sami gears in that case or otherwise? did you just use part of the stock legacy driveshaft to the sami case input flange, that little floater output piece? what axles are you using in front?
whatever the case, keep having fun. not even many EA's could keep up with it I bet.

I was thinking somewhere around Wyoming, RI.

Yeah, welded center diff and stock Sammi gears in the t-case. The stock Sammi gears are acctually pretty good as they have a reduction even in high range that makes the car pull about as well as stock, i think it's acctually geared lower than stock even with the 33"s on it. And the low range is awsome for rough off road, but i would still like to get some crawler gears for realy rough hill climbing stuff.

The front axles are acctually stock Leagcy front axles with EA turbo inner CV's to adapt to the Subaru rearend that we are using in the front.

All the driveshafts we made pretty much welded together right in the middle useing the Sammi shafts and XT6 shafts becouse they were the same diameter.

Pretty much the same idea the EA guys have been running for awile, just a much different suspension design to lift.

There are a few nice little rally dirt style roads in Sterling CT/ West Grenwich/ Coventry area i know of, and try to frequent regulary.

We would just go out looking for them late at night :)

Yeah a get together day of dirt run fun would be cool!
