GeneralDisorder Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 (edited) No - it's legit. Used to be a fairly common practice to bob them like that. Helps the departure angle quite a bit. Probably in Austrailia by the looks of the bumper, etc. Plus the picture's file name says it's a Brumby - that pretty much pegs it for certain.

ShawnW Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Does that require, or benefit from using a hatchback gas tank? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psyko Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 look at the trees....they are all proper,i would bet it is real...cheers, brian The trees are above where the bed of the Brat would have been anyway though. They wouldn't have needed touching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbchux Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 lol @ those of you who are fooled yea, Phiz did that. bobbed the front AND rear, and lifted it more than it really was (you can see where the ground was copied under the car). http://offroadingsubarus.com/bobbed_brumby.html original: chopped: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbrat Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 here's a real one bobbed.... http://www.hatchpatrol.com/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=38 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bheinen74 Posted August 10, 2009 Author Share Posted August 10, 2009 thanks Mick. And I would think that you would want to ADD weight in the back after the Bobbing procedure, these things are already too light in the back, so that would make it even lighter.

crockettbrat Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Didnt Phiz post that up before and there was a big discussion about how it wouldn't be possible to bob the front of the brat like his pic? My memory is getting fuzzy. Too much work mixed in with my car problem! Daniel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
