  1. What's the name of the "local offroad company"?

    What do they use as for the steering extension? Have they done Soobs before? If so, why haven't we heard of them?

    Their name is Renegade Off Road. Yes they have done soobs before and said that they haven't had any complaints yet. I don't think you've heard of them because I live in Bozeman Montana.population 40K. I'll call them up on what they use for steering extension and tell ya.

  2. I know that everyone here supports BYB lifts, but I think they're pretty expensive.(for me at least) I've talked to a local off road company and they said they do a great job on subarus and there lifts are really strong. Also they said it would only be lke 250-300 bucks installed.

  3. WORD! I can get a 3in lift from a local off road company for 250-300$. So I guess I'll start saving my pennies. In the meantime I'm gonna look for 15in rims at all the junkyards around my town. I will have an off road suby in no time.:brow:

  4. I don't really have enough money for a lift and rims so I opted to get 2-3inches by buying some brand new shocks. Then when I get some new shocks i'm gonna see how much clearence my tires got then get some bigger ones. Don't get me wrong I'm still gonna get a lift for my suby just not for a little bit.

     

    Anybody have any suggestions on where to get some off road shocks.

     

    Also what size are the stock rear and front shocks for an 81 GL.

  5. A junkyard is your only hope in most cases. You can look for a peugeot recycler or you can redrill your hubs to 6x140 to replace the 4x140. That way you can use almost any Toyota 6 lug rim.

     

    You wont find anything near 28" for a 13" rim.

    How would I go about redrilling my hubs?

  6. You'll have a tougher time finding big tires for 13" rims then you will finding bigger rims ;)

    i want to get some nice rims, but the scorpions are so expensive. Any suggestions on where to find some good rims other than the junkyard.
