GreaseMonkey03 Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Hello from NY. I purchased my first Subaru for 100 bucks a few months ago and decided to do as much of a mad max impersonation with it as I can. Lift, Steel tube bumpers, cut fenders, etc. It's an ongoing project but it will have to be a daily driver for the most part so I have the incredible misfortune of having to do the work in short spurts a little at a time without immobilizing the car or taking a lift up at work past sunday. fun. so far its gotten new struts and springs up front with the rears sitting in the car waiting for install. OE replacement exhaust. Resurfaced front rotors and new pads and then my right rear brake line exploded so I decided the next step will be to start replacing all the corroded suspension components for safety reasons. I posted a question about that in the modifications section so hopefully i'll have that done this weekend with a full write up if I get some answers on that. I'm a mechanic by trade so hopefully I can contribute to the forum as far as repair questions go. The custom stuff is what I will be learning along the way.

GreaseMonkey03 Posted February 10, 2017 Author Share Posted February 10, 2017 I forgot to mention that it is indeed a legacy OB and not a sport. When I'm ready for the bigger tires I may chop the spring seat and install coilover springs or extend the strut bottom. I haven't decided yet. I'll check out your website for sure thanks!
