a question? I can put the tires on a 2022 forester wilderness one inch higher without risking damaging something, I only ask because since it has a shorter ratio than the others and therefore spends more gasoline, it is to compensate for that fuel consumption more
Very well thought out kit. Subbed and sold. Thanks.
Great clear patient instructions young fellah – unlike here in Australia it’s refreshing to have some Subaru tech tips and absence of foul language and beer – I,m confident now to go ahead and install the package – John in S@
Thanks Ironman. You taught me 2 things today. Don’t tighten up your bushings until the car is on the ground and take the inner arm bolt off that way you can have leverage. Great stuff my man.
do these fit on the 2014 crosstrek?
When you install the rear brake line extender bracket, check to make sure the line doesn't rub on the tires after you install them. Don't ask me how I know (I used a Rancho lift kit which works great btw – just had to cut and re-weld the brake line extenders towards the center of the car.)
Heads up 2019 outback the sway bar needs no extra pieces. Just unbolt both sides let everything hang and after getting the struts bolted in the sway bar end links can be tapped in place
Question? 2018 outback 3.6r, how do these shocks/struts/springs handle on the highways, and curvious mountain driving at a bit higher speeds? Is it a little stiffer? I'm looking to add a sway bar and this suspension set up……
Do you get 2 more inches of travel or is it the same amout of travel like putting a spacer in?
Great video. Any news on this set-up for 2012 SH Forester??
Would I need to realign the rear wheels as well?
It's a great kit, but to install it will invalidate the warranty for all suspension and steering parts. I've spoken with a number of Subaru dealership service managers and they all told me the same thing. In fact, they won't even touch the car if it's been lifted. There is currently no lift kit that Subaru will authorize. In fact one service manager told me that they might not honor a drivetrain component. I have a 21 Crosstrek Sport and want to lift it, but I'm not throwing away the warranty.
You know your chock block looks a lot like the one I'm missing from my HMMWV that I had to write up on my 5988 form…… lol
