AdventureSubaru Posted June 17, 2012 Share Posted June 17, 2012 TOM! Welcome to the board! yeah, post up pics as things progress. Probably in the member rides, or Off Road section. (I upload them to PhotoBucket) Lemme know if you hit any snags or need any hep with those rear struts. They were a bit of a pain when I put them under the impreza.

95monsterwagon Posted June 17, 2012 Author Share Posted June 17, 2012 well today keaton came over and we got the rears bolted in. we didnt switch the tophats, we just thru the forester struts right in but now i know why you switch tophats, because the legacy tophats may have the same bolt pattern but theyre offset outwards. we bashed the inner wells in a bit to fit but one still rubs a bit so i gotta do a bit more bashing. thanks a crap load keaton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdventureSubaru Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Looks like it gave you a few inches. Now for some meaty tires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95monsterwagon Posted June 20, 2012 Author Share Posted June 20, 2012 yeah i think about 1 3/4- 2 inches. as soon as the budget is on my side again il be looking into at least some 15" rims ( preferably cheap steelies) and of course some tires with some deep tread, bfg a/t ko, grabbers, or something. im going to attempt some lift spacers on my own but if not then im gonna need some. already got the templates made.
